'''University Avenue''' is a downtown street in [[Lewisburg, Pennsylvania]], United States. It runs for around {{Convert|0.19|mi|km}}, from St. George Street in the north to Loomis Street in the south. It was the original main access road to the [[Bucknell University|University at Lewisburg]] (Bucknell University today), located on the northern side of the campus, and still leads to its former main entrance, punctuated by the 1905 Memorial Gateway.<ref>{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=e...&dq=old+main+university+avenue+bucknell&hl=en |title=Round and about Bucknell |date=1922 |publisher=Bucknell University |pages=6 |language=en}}</ref> The Grove, a wooded area of trees, stands inside the gates.<ref>[https://www.virtually-anywhere.net/tours/bucknell/campus/vtour/index.html?startscene=scene_The_Grove "The Grove"] – Bucknell University virtual tour</ref>

The university's oldest residence hall, Old Main (today known as [[Daniel C. Roberts Hall]]) stands atop College Hill, which begins its rise inside Memorial Gateway. It was built in 1858, when the school was known as the University at Lewisburg, and was rebuilt after fire in the 1930s.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Old Main - 1895 |url=http://www.departments.bucknell.edu/edu/bu_history_old/photo_history/1895/1895_Roberts.html |access-date=2024-05-03 |website=www.departments.bucknell.edu}}</ref>

Limestone Run, a branch of both Bull Run and [[Miller Run]], crosses below University Avenue in its northern third. It empties into the [[West Branch Susquehanna River]] a short distance to the southeast. Its final stretch passes through what was formerly a lush area known as the Meadows.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Deans |first=Thomas R. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9...the+meadows+university+avenue+lewisburg&hl=en |title=The Story of a County: Union County Sesquicentennial, 1813-1963 |date=1963 |publisher=Focht Printing Company |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=e...&dq=old+main+university+avenue+bucknell&hl=en |title=Round and about Bucknell |date=1922 |publisher=Bucknell University |pages=4 |language=en}}</ref>

Several [[Fraternities and sororities|fraternity and sorority]] buildings stand on University Avenue, including [[Kappa Sigma]] and [[Phi Gamma Delta]], while President's House is located at the intersection with Loomis Street, across from Lowry House (former home of hymn-writer [[Robert Lowry (hymn writer)|Robert Lowry]]).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Robert Lowry Historical Marker |url=https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=43487 |access-date=2024-05-05 |website=www.hmdb.org |language=en}}</ref> The [[Union County Industrial Railroad]] passes behind both of these buildings.
