Former Howard Johnson's Motor Lodge and Restaurant located at 333 Columbus Ave. in Springfield,MA. The property has been abandoned since 2009.
This 73 room motor lodge and 100 seat restaurant opened for business on December 9th 1959. The motor lodge dropped the HJ brand in the Winter of 1977 and was subsequently renamed Columbus Motor Lodge. The independently owned motor lodge had ceased operations by the latter half of 1978, however the Howard Johnson's restaurant remained open until February 28th 1980. Following the closure of the HJ restaurant the space was converted to a locally owned eatery under the name Sea and Salad which opened its doors on May 1st 1980. Following the opening of Sea and Salad, the motor lodge which had been vacant more than two years underwent a multi million dollar renovation which turned the 73 room motor lodge into 24 individual offices. The guest building was enclosed as part of the conversion, however an abundance of holdovers from HJ remained in the renovated facility. During its 27 years serving as an office complex under the name "91 South Office Park" the facility was never leased to its full capacity with the last business vacating the building in 2009.
In August 1984 the Sea and Salad restaurant was acquired by Enfield,CT based Ann Fields Pie Company which opened in the Fall of 1984. In February 1990 Ann Fields closed and within a month the eatery reopened under the name Mom's Restaurant. In 1993 the restaurant was occupied by an independently owned eatery under the name Tyffani's Fine Foods which operated until 1995. After sitting vacant for more than five years the restaurant was converted into a retail wholesale business (under the name U-Gain) which operated until 2005. Following the closure of the wholesale company the former Howard Johnson's restaurant along with the adjoining motor lodge have continued to sit vacant as of August 2025.
Note the vantage point on which I'm taking this photo is roughly the spot where the gate lodge was located.
William Sinclair's central workshops were located at Springfield Moss at Wellington Reformatory, near Leadburn. The company operated both 2-ft and 2-ft 6-in gauge systems and this one, with its tipping dock adjacent to the workshops, was of the latter gauge. The operation had only been seasonal here in its latter years, but by the time of this visit on 2nd June 2015 the railway had already fallen into disuse. Standing on the loop line were Alan Keef 4-wheel diesel-hydraulic L1 'Sandra' (W/No.47 of 1994) and Andrew Barclay 4-wheel diesel-hydraulic T7 'Dolly' (W/No.560 of 1971). Both had been re-gauged from 2-ft gauge.

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.

When I saw this I thought it was an old department store, but I see what looks like a nigh depository on the side so it may have been a bank.

I'm late for Veteran's Day but I found this archive shot from last December, experimenting with the Rokinon 12 mm wide angle lens. I used PS's distortion correction to make it look less curved.
The Springfield Military Cemetery was established 1867. There were 1521 initial interments, of which 832 were known and 689 were unknown. Many remains came from the Battle of Wilson's Creek some 10 miles to the south and six years prior. Wilson's Creek was the first Civil War battle west of the Mississippi River. This view is to the north, a view to the south from the same place reveals a portion for Confederate soldiers that was added in 1871.
