Massachusetts Congressman Richard Neal has announced the final phase in a decade long revitalization project in the neighborhood surrounding the Springfield Museums.
$2 million in street renovations will be done this summer to put the finishing touches on the revitalization of the Armory-Quadrangle neighborhood. A new federal courthouse opened in 2008, a state data center will open later this summer. There have been numerous infrastructure improvements. Congressman Neal said about $200 million in public money has been spent to enhance and preserve the commercial and educational district.
The Springfield Museums attract 250,000 visitors annually.
