Holladay Hall of North Carolina State University (Raleigh, North Carolina)
Built ca. 1889
North Carolina State University (NC State) is a public land-grant research university in Raleigh. Founded in 1887 as part of the University of North Carolina system, it is the largest university in the Carolinas. The university forms one of the corners of the Research Triangle together with Duke University in Durham and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It is classified among "R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity."
The North Carolina General Assembly established the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts, now NC State, on March 7, 1887, originally as a land-grant college. The college underwent several name changes and officially became North Carolina State University at Raleigh in 1965. However, by longstanding convention, the "at Raleigh" portion is usually omitted. Today, NC State has an enrollment of more than 35,000 students, making it among the largest in the country.
The North Carolina State University Historic District was designated a state historic district in 2004, with an expansion in 2013.
