University of Tampa is a private college, rich in history. Plant Hall, formerly the Tampa Bay Hotel, is a symbol of the city and its history. Henry B. Plant built the hotel around 1888. The rooms that once hosted Teddy Roosevelt, the Queen of England, Booker T. Washington, Stephen Crane and Babe Ruth (who signed his first baseball contract in the hotel's grand dining room) are now classrooms, laboratories and administrative offices for the University of Tampa.
