The John Deere Pavilion in Moline

The John Deere Pavilion landmark is part of the John Deere Commons in downtown Moline, Illinois.[1] The pavilion opened in 1997 as part of an urban renewal project and serves as a visitor center for John Deere which has its headquarters in Moline.[2][3] It also contains that largest store selling John Deere merchandise.[4]

Opened in 1997, the pavilion has drawn over 200,000 visitors annually.[5][6] It is one of the top attractions in the region[7] and contributed directly to the development of other corporate visitor centers such as Coca-Cola and Caterpillar_Inc..[8]
