Looking Northwest From Monroe And 6th St,, Historic District, Springfield, Illinois

            A view looking northwest from the intersection of E. Monroe and S. 6th St. in downtown Springfield. Shown on the left is the north side of the 500 block of E. Monroe, and on the right is the west side of the 200 block of S. 6th St.  All of the buildings in this view lie within the Central Springfield Historic District. 

Centered on the Old State Capitol, which served as the Illinois state house from 1840 to 1876, this area includes an outstanding number of two and three story late 19th and early 20th century commercial structures, intact for most part on the upper facades. These buildings included hotels, drug stores, groceries, clothing stores, and dry good stores. The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, and was expanded in 1986 and 2015.
