The Leland Hotel in Springfield, Illinois, is a building that currently houses the Springfield office of the Illinois Commerce Commission.[1] It was built between 1864 and 1867 at a cost of $320,000.[2] Much of the food served at the Leland Hotel was grown on the Leland family farm in present-day Leland Grove.[2]
The horseshoe sandwich, a local food specialty, was first served at the Leland Hotel in 1928.[3]
