Restored to resemble its bustling prime, the building now is composed of a first floor visitor center, second floor federal courtrooms, and a third floor common room and attorney offices. It was an ideal location for a rising young law firm -- near the Capitol and Springfield's finest hotel of the day and just above the local post office and Federal Courtroom. This is the only surviving structure in which Lincoln maintained working law offices. Be sure to take in the 20-minute audio-visual presentation and guided tour of the legal offices.
