Why Live in Grand Central

Grand Central, located in the heart of Springfield, features vintage homes primarily built between 1900 and 1930, including bungalows with cozy front porches and Dutch Colonial Revivals with barn-like rooms. The neighborhood's homes often require some care, contributing to lower home prices compared to the rest of Springfield. The area is known for its sense of community, with neighbors frequently interacting from their front porches and an active neighborhood association that organizes local events. The upcoming Springfield Rail Improvement Project, set to be completed by 2027, will move train traffic away from the Third Street corridor, reducing noise and improving commutes. Grand Central's cracked sidewalks and overgrown curbs give it a less manicured look, but homes often feature personal touches like flags, front gardens, and porch hammocks. The neighborhood is within walking distance to Iles Park, which offers pickleball courts, a playground, and a baseball diamond. Washington Park, just over a mile away, spans 150 acres and includes sports courts, walking trails, and a botanical garden with one of the country's largest carillons. Dining options within walking distance include Gabatoni's for handmade pizza, Mel-O-Cream Donuts, Big Sharks Fish & Chicken, and Mekong Café. For groceries, locals often shop at Hy-Vee, located one mile south. Downtown Springfield is just 1 mile away, and the city's medical district is 2 miles away, with several bus lines and bike lanes facilitating easy commutes.
