In Springfield, IL they've reconstructed the state capitol as it stood when Lincoln was there, doing his thing, before he headed off to Washington. The building is populated with antiques from the time period -- this is one of those -- an original stack of bureaucratic paperwork bound with red tape. This, supposedly, is where the term comes from.
Unloading summer leftovers from a quick weekend trip to Springfield, IL sometime back.
Just a quick trip, after plan A was snowed off and plan B seemed to be flooding whilst we were inside it.
Quite an odd little place as most of the site is still live.

Springfield is the capital of the U.S. state of Illinois and the county seat and largest city of Sangamon County. The city's population was 116,250 at the 2010 U.S. Census, which makes it the state's sixth most-populous city, the second largest outside of the Chicago metropolitan area (after Rockford), and the largest in central Illinois. As of 2019, the city's population was estimated to have decreased to 114,230, with just over 211,700 residents living in the Springfield Metropolitan Statistical Area, which includes Sangamon County and the adjacent Menard County.
Present-day Springfield was settled by European Americans in the late 1810s, around the time Illinois became a state. The most famous historic resident was Abraham Lincoln, who lived in Springfield from 1837 until 1861, when he went to the White House as President of the United States. Major tourist attractions include multiple sites connected with Lincoln including the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, Lincoln Home National Historic Site, Lincoln-Herndon Law Offices State Historic Site, and the Lincoln Tomb at Oak Ridge Cemetery.
The city lies in a valley and plain near the Sangamon River. Lake Springfield, a large artificial lake owned by the City Water, Light & Power company (CWLP), supplies the city with recreation and drinking water. Weather is fairly typical for middle latitude locations, with four distinct seasons, including, hot summers and cold winters. Spring and summer weather is like that of most midwestern cities; severe thunderstorms may occur. Tornadoes hit the Springfield area in 1957 and 2006.
The city has a mayor–council form of government and governs the Capital Township. The government of the state of Illinois is based in Springfield. State government institutions include the Illinois General Assembly, the Illinois Supreme Court and the Office of the Governor of Illinois. There are three public and three private high schools in Springfield. Public schools in Springfield are operated by District No. 186. Springfield's economy is dominated by government jobs, plus the related lobbyists and firms that deal with the state and county governments and justice system, and health care and medicine.

Built in 1897-1898, this Richardsonian Romanesque Revival-style building was designed by Francis T. Baron to serve as a Union Station for Springfield, Illinois. The station was a joint effort between the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (B&O Railroad), Chicago, Peoria, and St. Louis Railroad (CP&StL), and Illinois Central Railroad, and later served the short-lived St. Louis, Peoria and North Western Railway. The station’s original 110 foot (34 meter) tall three-story tower was removed in 1946, ten years after the clock faces had been deactivated as a cost-saving measure during the Great Depression. It served as a passenger train station until 1971, when service was discontinued, in favor of Amtrak utilizing the through-running station along the Chicago and Alton Railroad lines, later known as the Gulf, Mobile and Ohio Railroad (GMO), just a few blocks to the west of the station. The building features a multi-colored brick exterior with dark red and light red bricks present alongside buff brick, stone trim, arched bays, a hipped roof, hipped dormers, a large canopy on the Madison Street facade with brick piers and large brackets, which was the former passenger platform alongside the railroad tracks, and a reconstructed tower with four turrets, a pyramidal hipped roof, and four clock faces. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. After passenger train service was discontinued, the building served as offices for the State of Illinois until 2004. Between 2004 and 2007, the building was restored to its original exterior appearance, with the reconstruction of the clock tower and restoration of historic exterior elements. Today, the building serves as the visitor center for the nearby Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library.
