Outing Park, Bounded by Adams, Richelieu, Marble, & Main Streets, Springfield, Hampden County, MA
Summary
Significance: In 1913 one of Springfield's most notable construction firms, Gagnier and Angers Inc., began building "Outing Park." Fourteen years later, forty-four, three and four-story brick apartment blocks had been completed on what was considered to be the last available open land for development in the city. Hollywood, as the development was later called, was and still is the largest and most cohesive apartment district in the city.
