Tigert Hall

Tigert Hall is an administrative building at the University of Florida designed in modified Collegiate Gothic style with red clay tile roofing and decorated cast stone window frames. The three-and-a-half-story structure houses university offices and features terrazzo floors with marble seating along its interior corridors.

This administrative center was constructed between 1949 and 1950 and named in 1960 after John J. Tigert, the university's third president. The building later became part of the University of Florida Campus Historic District, recognized as such in 2008.

The building displays architectural plaques representing each college of the university, reflecting the institutional growth and academic development through the decades.

The building sits at the eastern edge of campus along U.S. Route 441, making it easy to locate from the highway. Access for visitors depends on university policies, so it helps to check ahead before planning a visit.

Tigert Hall defines the eastern boundary of the campus, facing U.S. 441 and contributing to the University of Florida Campus Historic District since 2008.
