A Unique Perspective of Midtown Gainesville
What really sets Hub Gainesville University’s rooftop apart is the views. From above, Gainesville stretches out around you, with sightlines toward the University of Florida campus and Midtown Gainesville that add to the sense of place. As the day winds down, the rooftop becomes an especially popular place to relax, talk, and enjoy the shift from day to night.
The BBQ area is available for shared resident use and is typically used casually for meals and small get-togethers. As a community space, residents are expected to clean up after themselves, and the leasing team is always available to answer questions about how the area works.
With the pool, hot tub, seating, and BBQ area all in one open-air space, the rooftop feels less like a standalone amenity and more like an extension of your off-campus apartment near UF, just with a better backdrop. It’s an easy place to recharge, spend time with friends, or simply enjoy the view.
