Springfield calls itself the City of Firsts. It is the birthplace of basketball, home of the first national armory, and the hometown of Theodor Geisel, better known as Dr. Seuss. It is the largest city in Hampden County and sits on the east bank of the Connecticut River.
William Pynchon settled Springfield in 1636, and it was incorporated as a city in 1852. The Springfield Armory made small arms from 1794 until it closed in 1968, and it reopened as a National Park Service site in 1978. Basketball was invented here in 1891, a story told today at the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. The city calls itself the City of Homes for its many protected houses from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Neighborhoods range from Victorian streets around Forest Park to post-war capes and ranches in Sixteen Acres and Pine Point, with a downtown built around the MassMutual Center, Symphony Hall and MGM Springfield.
The city's most populous neighborhood, developed as a Victorian garden district between 1880 and 1920 around the 735-acre Forest Park. Includes the Forest Park Heights Historic District, six public schools, a library and a golf course. ZIP 01108. ( source )
