Developer chosen to redevelop three downtown Springfield buildings
A Chicago-based developer has been selected to convert three downtown Springfield properties into mixed-use. The three properties the city wants to see reworked, include the iconic clocktower building at 113-117 State Street, the historic colonial building at 1139-1155 Main Street, and 11-21 Stockbridge Street which are more than 130,000 gross square feet in the downtown. These buildings, acquired in 2021 as part of a bank foreclosure sale by Springfield Redevelopment Authority (SRA), do have some occupants. They are identified as reuse parcels on Main Street in the SRA’s Court Square Urban Renewal Plan.
