About University Place, WA
University Place received its name in the 1800s when the University of Puget Sound, a private liberal-arts college in North Tacoma, purchased land along the primary north-south route of Grandview Drive. The school sought to build a new campus there, but ended up selling the land back to the city. University Place remained an unincorporated part of Pierce County until the City of University Place was formed on August 31, 1995.
Today, University Place is largely suburban in character and functions as a mixed business and residential area with waterfront on the Puget Sound. The town is home to Curtis Senior High School and Charles Wright Academy.
In 2015, University Place and the surrounding areas were honored to host the U.S. Open at Chambers Bay golf course. A Scottish links-style course, Chambers Bay also hosted the 2010 U.S. Amateur.
