Herron Gymnasium, Historic gymnasium at Miami University, Oxford, United States.
The two-story Romanesque revival building featured a complete gymnasium on the second floor with two classrooms and chapels on the first level.
Constructed in 1897 and named after Cincinnati judge John W. Herron, the gymnasium served as Miami University's primary recreational center until 1932.
The facility supported multiple activities, from basketball games starting in 1904 to YWCA and YMCA gatherings in dedicated chapel spaces.
The gymnasium stood at coordinates 39.509444 latitude and -84.733889 longitude until its demolition in 1986, when it was replaced by a parking lot.
During World War II, the gymnasium temporarily transformed into Navy barracks before returning to its function as a women's athletic facility.
