Springfield, MA Handyman Services

Handyman Service Across Springfield, MA

Springfield sits on the east bank of the Connecticut River, the largest city in western Massachusetts at roughly 155,000 people, and its houses tell the story of how it grew. The Victorian neighborhoods came first: McKnight, laid out in 1881 and known for its hundreds of painted ladies, the Forest Park Heights streets around Sumner Avenue, Maple Hill on the bluff above downtown, and Upper Hill and Old Hill near Springfield College. Two- and three-family houses fill the blocks of the South End, the North End, Liberty Heights and East Springfield, many built for the workers who staffed the Armory, the insurance companies and the factories. After World War II the city filled in its outer edge, and Sixteen Acres, East Forest Park and Pine Point are mostly capes, ranches and split-levels on quieter streets. One morning we might be re-securing plaster in a McKnight Queen Anne; that afternoon we're replacing a vanity faucet in a 1958 Sixteen Acres ranch.

Daily life here follows a few big lines: I-91 along the river, I-291 cutting northeast toward the Mass Pike, Boston Road carrying shopping traffic out toward Wilbraham, and Sumner Avenue and State Street tying the neighborhoods together. Forest Park's 735 acres anchor the south end of the city, and its Bright Nights light display draws crowds every holiday season. Downtown has the Basketball Hall of Fame on the riverfront, the Springfield Museums and Dr. Seuss sculpture garden at the Quadrangle, and the Springfield Armory up on the hill.
