West Springfield (or "West Side") is a suburb of the city of Springfield directly across the Connecticut River in Western Massachusetts. The area is a great place to live with tons of things to do.
West Springfield is well-known for being the home of the Big E (Eastern States Exposition), the annual seventeen-day multi-state featuring agriculture, cuisine, shopping, rides, concerts, and more from all of the six New England States. A staple of the Big E fair grounds is Storrowtown Village, a recreated colonial village open throughout the year for shopping, holidays, museum tours, and dining at the Storrotown Tavern. The city is also known for the Josiah Day House, the oldest brick saltbox house in the United States, located near West Side's historic town common area.
West Side attracts many visitors from the surrounding areas for its many things to do. For entertainment, catch a movie at Cinemark Cinemas or a play at the Majestic Theater in the center of town. Grab a local craft brew from Two Weeks Notice Brewing Co. or a retro meal at Classic Burgers. Stop at Gooseberry Farms for ice cream, plants, and locally grown produce.
