Endangered Historic Properties

of

Springfield 

The pictures displayed are properties of architectural and historical significance and have great importance to the city of Springfield. 

They are pictured here to raise your interest and support for the reuse of these valuable assets. It is always easy to destroy: it takes imagination and effort to save. A community is a product of its collective memory and that memory is anchored in its stories and its built environment. 

When we turn our backs on our past and on the things that those before us left in out keeping, we become nothing more than wanderers through life without roots. Go out and look at these buildings and think how you might help in saving them. 

Lend your moral support to Historic Preservation, because it is our City and our community and is only as good as we are.
