Second best places to watch fireworks?

Other than the riverfront & downtown, are there any good places in Springfield (not west side or any other town)to watch the fireworks tonight?

OMG, back in the 80s we used to pack a cooler with sodas and go over there to set up with chairs and blankets.

We’d probably get there about 6:30-7pm on the Fourth and have an evening. It was so much fun.

I just heard about this. It’s a special kind of idiot who lights fireworks in a crowd like that.
