A Neighborhood
Unlike Any Other

Springfield was Jacksonville's first suburb — platted in 1869 and blossoming into a magnificent residential district by the turn of the century. Its tree-canopied streets are lined with more than 1,700 historic structures, from ornate Queen Anne cottages to stately Colonial Revival mansions.

Today, a passionate community of stewards, entrepreneurs, and artists are writing the next chapter of this extraordinary place — preserving its architectural soul while breathing vibrant new life into every corner.
