About University

Park

University Park, located between Downtown Akron and Highland Square, is a historic and academic Akron neighborhood with tree-lined streets and campus greens. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along E Exchange Street by the University of Akron, where coffee counters, casual eateries, and student-facing storefronts cluster around steady foot traffic. The University of Akron anchors daily rhythms with collegiate Gothic and mid-century academic buildings set beside pocket lawns. EJ Thomas Hall and the Akron Art Museum add a cultural throughline beyond campus. Housing stock mixes early-20th-century homes with small apartment buildings, giving blocks a lived-in, walkable feel. Parks and trails thread toward downtown, tying the neighborhood to the city’s larger arts-and-events circuit.
