Competition during the indoor track and field season takes place at the Armory track, located in the heart of campus, adjacent to Huff Hall. The track surface provides the University of Illinois with one of the finest indoor facilities in the Midwest.
Built in 1914 the William Carbys Zimmerman designed Armory replaced the old "Military Drill Hall", now known as H.E. Kenney Gymnasium Annex. When completed the Armory was the largest free-span, no center support system, structure in the world. The "drill hall" now referred to as the main floor, measures 200' x 300' with a ceiling height of 98 feet.
