About Historic West
Side
Historic West Side, located between downtown Springfield and Washington Park, is a historic and residential Springfield neighborhood with brick-lined streets and porch-front architecture. The character concentrates along MacArthur Boulevard near Lawrence Avenue, where corner taverns, local diners, and small storefronts set a lived-in, walkable rhythm. Queen Anne and Craftsman homes mix with tidy bungalows, and mature trees frame deep front yards. Community life often orbits the Illinois State Fairgrounds during fair season and year-round events. The Dana-Thomas House anchors the area’s design legacy with Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie School imprint. Parks and neighborhood schools add everyday structure without breaking the district’s old-house continuity.
