North Carolina State University Main Campus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
North Carolina State University Main Campus is the Main Campus of North Carolina State University. Notable features of Main Campus include the Bell Tower and D.H. Hill Library. The campus is almost completely brick. There are even brick statues protruding out of the sidewalk from a surplus of bricks. The area around the D.H. Hill Library is called "The Brickyard" because it is simply a flat open bricked area.
The Main Campus is divided into three sections: a "North Campus", a "Central Campus", and a "South Campus". The North and Central campuses are separated by the railroad tracks that run through the area. Pedestrian access between these two campuses is by one of three tunnels or an underpass at Dan Allen Drive or a bridge at Pullen Road. Of the three tunnels, the Free Expression Tunnel is the largest; the other two, nicknamed the Reynolds Tunnel and the Thompson Tunnel, are much more narrow and do not have handicap access ramps. The North Campus is predominantly comprised of classroom buildings while the Central Campus features residence halls, dining halls, and administration and student affairs buildings. South Campus lies south of Western Boulevard and consists of Greek (Fraternity) Court, the McKimmon Center, the Avent Ferry Complex, and a few labs and specialty buildings.
