The 1960s and 1970s were a time of significant change in the history of Springfield, Illinois, as the city redefined itself through major developments in education, technology, and commerce. This pictorial history allows readers to remember the familiar places of those decades, such as the downtown area, and acquaint themselves with the history of the new institutions that started in this time period. Colorful images, many taken by amateur photographers, document the theme of change in the landscape and culture of Springfield as the city moved into the future.
