Memorial Church

A contributing property in the Memorial Square District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. Centered on a square at the intersection of Main and Plainfield Streets, this district served as the civic and social focal point for Springfield's northwestern Brightwood and North End neighborhoods, which developed after the Civil War. Its buildings, dating largely from the turn of the 20th century, include a trolley barn, a branch public library, and the Memorial Church, and represent work by two nationally prominent architects along with several leading local designers. The district is significant both for this concentration of notable architecture and for its role as the neighborhood's gathering place.
