Built in the 19th Century and early 20th Century, these buildings demonstrate the general historic architectural character of Downtown Springfield, with terra cotta and brick exteriors, decorative ornament, and first floor retail shopfronts.

The Illinois Governor's Mansion is the official residence of the governor of Illinois. It is located in the state capital, Springfield, Illinois. The Italianate-style Mansion was designed by Chicago architect John M. Van Osdel with a modified 'H' shaped configuration with a long central section, and the front and back on the sides of the 'H'. The 16-room manor was completed in 1855 and was first occupied by governor Joel Matteson, who held the official grand opening on January 10, 1856. It is one of the oldest historic residences in the state of Illinois and one of the three oldest continuously occupied governor's mansions in the United States. In 1898 alterations to the exterior added neoclassical elements. In 1972, the Illinois Governor's Mansion Association was founded as a charitable corporation to assist in the maintenance and programming at the mansion. The Mansion was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
Built in 1928-1930, this Classical Revival-style building was designed by James A. Wetmore to serve as a United States Post Office and Federal Courthouse for the city of Springfield, Illinois. The building is clad in limestone with a colonnade of two-story engaged fluted ionic columns on the principal facade along Monroe Street, flanked by arched entrance bays on the first floor, with a cornice featuring dentils at the top of the second floor, doric pilasters flanking the window bays on the third floor, six-over-six and nine-over-nine double-hung windows, decorative trim at the top of the building’s parapet, and a metal hipped roof. 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 remains in use as a post office and federal office building, being rededicated in honor of Paul Findley, a former US Representative from Illinois, in 1983.
SPRINGFIELD—On Saturday morning, demonstrators stand outside of the capitol building in Springfield during the People's March.
The People's March in Springfield was one of several nationwide marches Saturday, Jan. 18. Thousands had gone to Washington DC to participate in what was formerly known as the Women's March, which began in 2017. In addition to protesting Donald Trump's second presidency, the People’s March focused on several topics, including women’s and reproductive rights, LGBTQ rights, immigration, and climate and democracy.
Demonstrator Marzipan said they chose to attend the protest because of issues surrounding health insurance, women's rights, the war in Palestine, and much more. "I have been scared about how it seems our nation is ignoring the way that history is repeating itself in terms of oppression, in terms of silencing minorities, and I'm also sick of seeing insurance companies and doctors denying my friends and family medications that they need to function," Marzipan said. They added that it was good to see others attend the protest. "I'm glad to see that there are people in this town who aren't just full of hate and are willing to show up to these things. I think there's more of us than we realize. I wish I could say I'm feeling hopeful, but I'm feeling motivated for people to get their heads out of the sand and realize how bad this is getting how quickly," Marzipan said.

Built in 1959-1960, this Modern International-style building was designed by L. Philip Trutter and M. D. Turley to serve as the city hall and municipal office building for the city of Springfield. The three-story building is clad in limestone with ribbon windows, a windowless circulation core that is projected from the roof and west facade, dividing the facade into two sections, a projected one-story entrance bay, and a plaza on the west side of the building featuring a large fountain with three circular basins. The building today remains in use as the home of the Springfield city government, but was supplemented with the construction of an additional building on the block to the east during the late 20th Century.

Battle of Springfield
Across from this site stood Fort No. 5, the second larges of five forts built around Springfield. By January 8, 1863, the fort was only partially finished. It served only as a rallying point during the battle. From this point and along St. Louis Street, Union soldiers from the 3rd and 14th Missouri State Militia Cavalry engaged in several skirmishes with Maj. Ben Elliott's battalion of scouts. In one brief encounter, two companies of the 14th MSM, commanded by Lt. Col. Pound and Capt. Milton Burch, clashed with Lt. William H. Gregg and Quantrill's Confederate company, resulting in a number of casualties to the Union forces. From this position on the morning of January 9, the weary Union defenders watched as the Confederates disengaged their battle lines and withdrew east along St. Louis St., the road to St. Louis. The battle was over. Both sides suffered casualties in excess of 12%.
