Historik

Sioux City was laid out in the winter of 1854-55. It became a major transportation hub to the western Plains, including Mormons heading to Salt Lake City and speculators heading to Wyoming goldfields.

In 1891, the Sioux City Elevated Railway was opened and became the third steam-powered elevated rapid transit system in the world, and later the first electric-powered elevated railway in the world after conversion in 1892. However, the system fell into bankruptcy and closed within a decade.

Övrigt

The city gained the nickname ”Little Chicago” during the Prohibition era due to its reputation for being a purveyor of alcoholic beverages.
