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. Major tourist attractions include multiple sites connected with Lincoln including his presidential library and museum, his home, and his 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.
This is our house in Springfield,Va. These pics. were taken by our neighbor, Mr. Sutton, as it was being built in the lale 60`s. The original house was jacked up, new foundation poured, and then the addition and roof went on. My dad and his buddies did all the work...all the brick that was used came from a old house that was being torn down in Arlington. My friends and I used to play in the debris in the front yard while they were working.

Built in 1927-1931, this Art Deco-style building was designed by Law, Law and Potter to serve as the home of the Central Illinois Public Service Company, which was a local energy utility in the Springfield area, though the building is more commonly known as the Illinois Building. The 15-story building was then the largest commercial office building in Illinois outside of Chicago, and stands 201 feet (61 meters) tall. The building features a limestone-clad exterior with decorative green spandrel panels between most windows on the upper floors, decorative carved sculptural reliefs, a setback upper section of the tower, multiple first floor retail shopfronts, and a main entrance on Adams Street with a decorative Art Deco transom, pendant-style light fixtures, and green marble serpentinite cladding above the doorway. The building is a contributing structure 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 building today houses multiple office and retail tenants.
We drove on Old Route 66 in Springfield Illinois. We looked at the Capital as we drove by since there was not a parking space for an RV to be found.
