Tigert Hall is the University of Florida's main administration building, designed by architect Jefferson Hamilton in a modified Collegiate Gothic style and built in the late 1940s and early 1950s. It stands on the eastern edge of the Gainesville campus, facing Southwest Thirteenth Street (U.S. 441).

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 carries the name of John J. Tigert, university president from 1928 to 1947, to whom it was dedicated in 1960. Its position on the campus's eastern edge, facing Southwest Thirteenth Street (U.S. 441), makes it a landmark for anyone arriving from the highway.

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 was designed by architect Jefferson Hamilton in a modified Collegiate Gothic style, and it was renamed in 1960 for John J. Tigert, the university's third president, who led the school from 1928 to 1947.
