ʻO La Petite Roche he pōhaku e popo i ka muliwaiʻo Arkansas. ʻO Geographic speaking, aia ma kaʻokoʻa o nā paepae o Ouachita Mountain, ke kahawaiʻo Gulf Coast Plalain a me Arkansas River. Ua kapaʻiaʻo iaʻo Point of Rocks. Uaʻike muaʻia e Jean-Baptiste Bénard de La Harpe,ʻo kekahi o nā meaʻimi Pelekane mua loa o Arkansas i ka lā 9 oʻApelila, 1722.ʻO ka Harpah Boulevard, e holo ana ma ke kahawaiʻo Riverfront , ua kapaʻia nō hoʻi nona.
ʻO ka Point of Rock ka pōhaku mua i holo ma luna o ka muliwaiʻo Arkansas i koʻoe piʻiʻana mai Mississippi a hanaʻia ka paepae kūlohelohe ma luna o ka muliwai. Ua hanaʻia ka Point of Rocks i kahi alakai nui no ka waiho muaʻana a me kahi kīʻaha no nā moku. Kapa nā kānaka Geologists iā iaʻo Jackfork Formation.
ʻAʻole i kapa inoaʻo Jean-Baptiste Bénard de La Harpe iā Little Rock. Ua kapaʻia ka inoaʻo Little Rock (Le Petit Rocher) e ka poʻe Farani. ʻO ka inoaʻo La Harpe ka inoa o ka pōhaku nui loa i "Rocher Francais."

ʻO ka nui o ka hōʻeuʻeu o ka moʻolelo, hikiʻole iāʻoe keʻike hou aku i ka pōhaku e kahe ana i konaʻano kumu. ʻO ka mea pōʻino, ua piʻi ka neʻeʻana o ke kūlana ma ka'āina hānau mua. I Mei o 1872, ua hoʻokumuʻia kahi alahaka ma ka Point of Rocks. Ua manaʻoʻia ka alahaka e hana ma ke alahaka kaʻaahi, akā haʻaleleʻia ka papahana.

I ka makahiki 1932, ua hoʻololi houʻia ka Point of Rocks no nā malihini. Ua hoʻoholoʻiaʻo ka hoʻokipaʻana i ka hoʻokuʻuʻana i kahi pōʻino nui loa, no laila, ua weheʻia he 4,700 pauna paona a neʻe aku i ka pā o ka hale o ke kūlanakauhale, a ua waihoʻia kekahi hapa manawa i loko. Ua noho kēia ma City Hall a hiki i 2009.
I ka makahiki 2009, ua hoʻihoʻiʻia kēia'āpana i ka muliwaiʻo Arkansas a hāʻawiʻia i kona wahi pono'ī. Hāpai ka plaza i ka moʻolelo o ia wahi a ma kahi kokoke i ke ala e hele aku ai i ka Hui Pōpili Piliawa Junction Bridge Junction a me ka Walking Walking kahi e hāʻawi ai iʻeono mau paneli e pili ana i ka mōʻaukala pūnaewele. ʻO kēia plaza kahi kokoke i ka palena'ākau o Rock Street e pili ana i ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike Pauna ma Riverfront Park.
Inā makemakeʻoe eʻike i ka pōhaku i kēia lā, e waiho mau ana ia me kahi poʻomanaʻo mōʻaukala ma kahi o ka wā kahiko. Inā e hele anaʻoe ma ke kahawaiʻo Riverfront,ʻo La Petit Roche Plaza aia ma waena o ka muliwaiʻo Amphitheater a me ka Pōkō. Aia kekahi pā e hoʻokaʻawale ana i ka plaza. He paʻakikī ke nalowale, akā, ke paipai nei wau e hele wāwae i ke koena o ka pā. ʻO ka pīkoʻa holoʻokoʻa kekahi o nā mea hikiʻole ke hoʻokuʻu i nā kiʻi ma ke kūlanakauhaleʻo Little Rock .
Ua pihaʻo Riverfront Park i nā mea e pili ana i ka moʻolelo o ka poʻe kahiko. Aia ka papa 11 ma nā ala hele a me kekahi mau hōʻailona o ka muliwaiʻo Arkansas. He kūpono ka heleʻana ināʻoʻoe ma ke kūlanakauhale. Hāʻaʻia ia i ka mokuʻo Arkansas River Trail . Aia ma nā kahawaiʻo Riverfront Park nā hana no nāʻohana,ʻo ia hoʻi kahi papa kuʻi a me kahi pāʻani.
