The Walker Building is a historic Romanesque Revival commercial building at 1228-1244 Main Street in downtown Springfield, Massachusetts. When built in 1898, the building was five stories high; the top floor has since been removed. It was built for T. M. Walker, a local manufacturer and retailer of building supplies, including architectural woodwork and paint. The building, despite alterations, has retained much of its original facade, and is one of the best examples of Richardsonian Romanesque design in the city.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
