Texas Technological College Historic District

The district encompasses 110 acres with 27 buildings featuring Mission Revival architecture, characterized by stucco surfaces and low-pitched roofs with tile work.

Texas Tech University established this area in 1924, constructing numerous educational facilities and dormitories to serve the growing student population in West Texas.

The district represents early 20th-century educational development through its architectural elements, reflecting the Spanish Renaissance influence on academic institutions.

Located between 6th Street and 19th Street, the district maintains multiple academic buildings that continue to serve educational purposes within Texas Tech University.

The original campus included an Acre Project that provided students with individual plots of land for agricultural cultivation with irrigation support.
