Trinity's 125-acre (51 ha) campus, built atop a former lime quarry, is located north of downtown San Antonio, between the Monte Vista Historic District to the west and Olmos Park to the north. Designed by O'Neil Ford, the campus has been designated a National Historic Landmark District. There are 288 faculty members, with a student-to-faculty ratio of 8:1.
