University of Florida Historic Campus & District
Near corner of University & 13th Gainesville, FL
The University of Florida Campus Historic District and two individual campus buildings were listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1989 and 1990 in recognition of their architectural and cultural significance and the coherence of the campus plan. The buildings were designed by architects William A. Edwards from 1905 to 1924 and Rudolph Weaver from 1925 to 1939 in the Collegiate Gothic style. The landscape plan was developed in 1926 by Olmsted Brothers, the firm that designed New York’s Central Park. The historic campus reflects the university’s rich heritage and the significant place it holds in Florida’s educational history.
The University of Florida Campus Historic District is bounded by W. University Ave., US 441/SW. 13th St., Stadium Rd., and North-South Dr.
