University Heights Historic District is a historic neighborhood on the west side of Madison, Wisconsin. The 397 contributing structures were built from 1894 to 1965 - many by prominent University of Wisconsin faculty - in various styles of the period, and the subdivision was Madison's first elite residential suburb. In 1982 the district was added to the National Register of Historic Places, considered important for the various architectural styles it contains and for its association with the important people who have lived there.
