No I don't think
It's for nothing
But I hope someday we're gonna get it back
Tomorrow is closed
There's no future at all
We've burned it all down
Down to the ground
I saw it written on the bathroom wall
I've lost my place
We all have
But I hope someday we're gonna get it back

Each of the blocks on the four sides of Virden's large square are divided by an alleyway. This view shows the north half of the 100 block of N. Springfield St. on the west side of the square. Nearly all of the commercial buildings in this block date to the late 19th and early 20th century, although the facades of all of them have been modified over the years.
While most of Virden is situated in Macoupin County, the northern most part of the city is in Sangamon County. The Macoupin County portion of Virden is part of the St. Louis, Missouri-Illinois Metropolitan Statistical Area, while the Sangamon County portion is part of the Springfield Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population of Virden was 3,249 at the 2020 census.
The Historic Centre of Brugge illustrates continuity on an urban site that has been occupied since the early Middle Ages. Historical records of the town administration and regulations are condensed in the city records from the 13th century onwards.
An area of continuous settlement, the Historic Centre of Brugge has retained the original pattern of streets and places, canals, and open spaces. A very specific skyline of towers and taller civic buildings (such as the cathedral, the belfry and the churches) dominates the city. For the most part, buildings have retained the original parcels of land. The transformations that have taken place over time respect the functional changes in the town, and have become part of its historic authenticity, in a parallel way to other historic cities such as Siena in Italy.
The history of the town is well represented in the urban and architectural structures that harmoniously unify all periods of history since the origin of the city.
Since the second half of the 19th century, much attention has been paid to the history and the architecture of the town, and major debates about modalities followed the international trends in the field of restoration and conservation. This chronological and historical stratification is clearly recognizable in the urban morphology and architecture and is part of the present character of Brugge.
