On the left, built circa 1838, this building began as the American House Hotel, later being renovated into the present Italianate-style structure in the 1870s. The building features a red brick exterior, stone trim, tile panels on the spandrel between the second and third floor windows, a bracketed cornice, and a first floor retail shopfront with large plate glass windows flanked by cast iron columns. On the right, built in the 1920s, this Chicago School-style building was constructed to house Tobin Jewelers. The building features a terra cotta front facade with decorative panels, casement windows and transoms, and a modified first floor retail shopfront. The buildings are contributing structures in the Central Springfield Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and expanded to its present size in 2016.
The Navistar plant off Lagonda Avenue was torn down shortly after these photos were taken.

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.
Built circa 1855, this Italianate-style house was constructed for leather dealer Allen Miller and his family, and also housed James and Miranda Keys and Josephine Miers. The house features a clapboard-clad exterior, a low-pitch hipped roof, one-over-one and nine-over-nine double-hung windows with decorative trim surrounds, two front entrance doors with a decorative trim surround, and a brick base. The house is part of the Lincoln Home National Historic Site, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.
