McKinney Building

The McKinney Building at 1121-27 Main Street in Springfield is a five-story Classical Revival commercial block built in 1905 by Richard McKinney, with a brick facade featuring stone lintels and keystones on the lower stories, round-arched fifth-story window openings with decorative voussoirs, and an overhanging modillioned cornice. The ground floor was originally occupied by commercial tenants including McGregory and Gasman Monuments, while the upper floors housed Unity Hall, a meeting space used by the First Spiritualist Society and its Ladies Aid Society; McKinney sold the building in 1909 to the Crossett Realty Trust. Part of the Downtown Springfield Multiple Resource Area, the building is significant under Criteria A and C as an example of the city's early-20th-century southward commercial expansion and as an exceptionally well-detailed, largely intact small-scale commercial block of its period.
