As you enter Springfield's downtown square near 6th and Adams streets, you will encounter a four-part Lincoln family grouping by Larry Anderson. Known as "Springfield's Lincoln," it was unveiled June 5, 2004, by Mayor Timothy J. Davlin. These realistic life-size bronze figures show Abraham and Mary Lincoln with two of their sons. "Willie" waves to a likeness of his older brother Robert, which stands at a distance.
Anderson chose October 4, 1854, to depict a symbolic moment for the Lincolns. Roused by the possible extension of slavery in U.S. territories, Abraham pauses before giving a speech at the nearby statehouse. He stands with the manuscript tucked into his hatband, while his wife adjusts his coat.

this flower blooms only every 10 years and is supposed to stay open about 48 hours so I thought it would be awesome to go see but it closed up overnight, they hope it will reopen again for a little bit

State Capitol
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
The statue of Dr. King was unveiled on January 14, 1988 and displayed in the Capitol rotunda until it was moved outside the Illinois State Museum in 1989. In 1993 the statue was moved to its present location at "Freedom Corner" across 2nd Street from the Lincoln statue. Dr. King is the only non-Illinoisan to be honored with a statue.

Springfield District Court a.k.a.Springfield City Hall Annex, 1600 East Columbus Avenue, Massachusetts (E. C. Gardner and G. C. Gardner : 1930)
NRHP #83000765
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.
