University Green Historic District, Historic district at University of Vermont, Burlington, United States.

University Green Historic District is a rectangular park at the University of Vermont with intersecting walkways and bordered by academic buildings from different time periods. The layout extends from Colchester Street to Main Street, with University Place and South Prospect Street marking its eastern and western edges.

The central green space was established in 1801 by university founder Ira Allen as the heart of the campus. The district earned National Register of Historic Places designation in 1975, which protected its historical layout and character.

Students and local residents gather on the central green for classes, study sessions, and community events throughout the year. The fountains and seating areas serve as natural meeting points where people pause between activities.

The green slopes upward toward the east, so walking from South Prospect Street to University Place means a gentle climb. Paved walkways radiate from the central fountain, letting you reach the chapel, library and Old Mill without leaving the park. The southern side is lined by four 19th-century houses now used for university facilities.

The Old Mill, built in 1825, stands on the eastern edge and is the oldest building in the district. Its original design reveals the early construction methods and materials that shaped the early campus.
