Clinton, along with [[DeWitt, Iowa|DeWitt]] (also located in Clinton County), was named in honor of the sixth [[List of governors of New York|governor of New York]], [[DeWitt Clinton]]. Incorporated on January 26, 1857, Clinton is the principal city of the Clinton [[United States micropolitan area|Micropolitan Statistical Area]], which is coterminous with Clinton County.<ref>[https://www.census.gov/population/www/metroareas/lists/2007/List5.txt Micropolitan Statistical Areas and Components], [[Office of Management and Budget]], November 2007.

==History==
[[File:Welcome sign - Clinton, Iowa.JPG|left|thumb|Welcome to Clinton, Iowa]]

Elijah Buell, among the first European-American settlers in the Clinton area, established the town of Lyons in 1837. It was named after the French city [[Lyon]]. It grew with the lumber and railroad industry through the century, and merged in 1895 with the City of Clinton.

Clinton was platted as the Town of New York in 1836 by Joseph Bartlett.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.clintonia.com/community.html|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120508033417/http://www.clintonia.com/community.html|url-status=dead|title=Clinton, Iowa - Our Community<!-- Bot generated title -->|archive-date=8 May 2012|access-date=14 November 2021}}</ref> He was looking for gold deposits in the area.<ref>{{Cite book|title=Clinton Iowa: An Architectural Heritage|last=Schmitt|first=Ronald|publisher=Department of Community Development, City of Clinton, Iowa|year=1980|location=Clinton, Iowa|pages=5–11}}</ref>

In 1855, the Chicago, Iowa, Nebraska Railroad announced it would build a bridge across the Mississippi River at Little Rock Island. The Iowa Land Company named the town as Clinton, in honor of [[DeWitt Clinton]], governor of New York State. A general city charter was adopted in 1857. [[Lyons Female College]] was established in 1858.

Clinton's population grew to more than 1,000 as construction of the bridge continued. In 1859, the railroad line was completed to [[Cedar Rapids, Iowa|Cedar Rapids]]. Fifty years later, the single-track railroad bridge was replaced by a double-track bridge that was completed in 1909.

Between the 1850s and 1900, Lyons and Clinton quickly became centers of the lumber industry <ref>{{cite EB9 |wstitle = Clinton (1.) |volume= VI | page=7 |short=1}}</ref> and together were regarded as the "Lumber Capital of the World". In the 1880s and 1890s, Clinton boasted more millionaires per capita than any other city in the nation.{{citation needed|date=April 2024}}
In 1895, the town of Lyons officially merged with the city of Clinton.

By the end of 1900, the northern forests were depleted and the sawmills closed. The railroad and river, providing economical transportation in all directions, attracted manufacturing and heavy industry. The city still boasts a number of magnificent Victorian mansions built during that time. Among these is the [[George M. Curtis House]].

In 1925, Clinton acquired Eagle Point Park as part of its park system.

In 1956, the [[Gateway Bridge (Illinois–Iowa)]] was opened.

In 1965, the [[Mississippi River]] crested at 24.85 feet, effectively flooding the city of Clinton as well as many other cities along the Mississippi. [[United States Army Corps of Engineers|The US Army Corps of Engineers]] began a seven-year, $28.9 million [[levee]] project. An 8.1-mile [[levee|dyke]], 4,330 feet of concrete flood wall, six pumping stations, seven closure structures, five major street crossings; 17,320 feet of new sewer; and 23 gate wells were completed and dedicated in June 1981.

In 2005, Clinton was awarded one of the inaugural Iowa Great Places designations.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.culturalaffairs.org/greatplaces/|title=Iowa Great Places|website=Culturalaffairs.org|access-date=14 November 2021}}</ref>  Under this award, Clinton received a $1 million state budget allocation for cultural and landscape improvements along the city's riverfront.

In 2009, [[Archer Daniels Midland]] began construction of a new [[cogeneration]] plant to Clinton.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.adm.com/news/news-releases/archer-daniels-midland-company-reports-first-quarter-earnings-of-77-per-share|title=Archer Daniels Midland {{!}} ADM|date=2018-01-22|website=ADM|language=en-us|others=ADM|access-date=2018-01-22}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.adm.com/news/news-releases/archer-daniels-midland-company-reports-second-quarter-earnings-of-88-per-share|title=Archer Daniels Midland {{!}} ADM|date=2018-01-22|website=ADM|language=en-us|others=ADM|access-date=2018-01-22}}</ref> This has brought more jobs and workers to Clinton.

In 2016, the city obtained the certification for Lincolnway Industrial Rail and Air Park. The park is located adjacent to US Highway 30 and the Clinton Municipal Airport. The Union Pacific East-West Mainline runs to the south, with a dedicated spur running into the park. Targeted industries for the Clinton Region included chemicals processing, metal fabrication, and value-added agriculture. Rail.One, HeroBX, and Atlas Roofing Corporation were expected to occupy the Rail Park in 2025.{{citation needed|date=April 2024}}

In the 2010s–2020s, many businesses expanded, adding hundreds of new jobs to the area. These businesses include Big River Packaging, [[Nestle Purina]], and Archer Daniels Midland. They invested millions of dollars into the community. This catalyzed the development of new suburban housing developments, restaurants, and recreational attractions.

In 2020, Clinton received a grant from 'Iowa Great Places'. It dedicated to a project known as 'Even More Things to Do with a River View.' Funds were used to improve the city's riverfront and improve public access.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.arcgis.com/apps/dashboards/43992c40c7ab4d1495691a96aa249762|access-date=10 June 2024 |title=ArcGIS Dashboards }}</ref>

In 2023, the historic Clinton High School was torn down. The newly built Clinton High was opened for student use. Additionally, the 'Tailgate N' Tallboys' concert brought nearly 9,000 people to Clinton for a 3-day concert series.{{citation needed|date=April 2024}}
