Summary
The University Place Historic District is significant as an excellent (and best surviving) example of the residential component of the "college-town" phenomenon, which occurred at six locations on the outskirts of Lincoln and played a crucial role in the growth and development of the city. The area displays a range of residential styles including Prairie Boxes, Bungalows, and a few modest Period Revival style properties spanning the period from c.1890 to 1949.

About the National Register of Historic Places
The National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) is the country’s official list of historically significant properties. To be eligible for the NRHP a property must generally retain their historic appearance, be at least 50 years old, and have the potential to be documented as historically or architecturally significant at either the local, state, or national level. The National Register of Historic Places is a National Park Service program administered by the Nebraska State Historical Society for the state of Nebraska.
