Important buildings in a city

Urbana's 100 Most Important Buildings

100 BuildingsThe buildings range from a modest cottage built around 1850 to a 1950's house with an uncanny likeness to a UFO; from a bungalow ordered out of a Sears catalogue circa 1920 to the mansions of some of Urbana's founding fathers.

The list includes many of the historic buildings in our downtown - the library, the county courthouse, and many of the buildings on the 100-block of West Main Street - as well as many of the impressive fraternities and sororities that were typically built prior to World War II in eclectic styles and designed by well-known architects.
