University of Florida Campus Historic District, Historic district at University of Florida in Gainesville, United States.

The district spans 650 acres with 31 buildings and the Plaza of the Americas, featuring Collegiate Gothic architectural elements throughout the campus grounds.

The University of Florida campus opened in 1906 with two incomplete buildings, growing from 102 students to a current population of 70,000 across 900 structures.

The Plaza of the Americas stands as a central gathering location where students meet for academic discussions, outdoor activities, and campus celebrations.

Frederick Law Olmsted Jr designed the 1927 landscape plan that established the Plaza of the Americas, integrating green spaces with academic structures.
