The McKinney Building is a historic commercial building at 1121-27 Main Street (adjacent to Crossett Lane) in downtown Springfield, Massachusetts. The five story Classical Revival building was built in 1905, at a time when Springfield's downtown was growing to the south. It was built by developer Richard McKinney on land that formerly belonged to Jonathan Bangs (builder of the adjacent Bangs Block). The ground floor housed retail spaces, and the upper floors were in the early years used by First Spiritualist Society for their meetings and other social activities.[2] The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
