Park Place Hall is a student dormitory located at 187-189 Allen Place in the North Campus area.

The dormitory, which is a converted apartment house, was formerly known as Allen West. The College purchased the property along with the adjacent building, which later was named Boardwalk Hall, in 1957 for $65,000. It was originally used for faculty housing and then later converted to student living spaces.

In 1982, in an effort to name the “nameless” dorms on Trinity's campus, a committee, with student and administrative input, voted to name the dormitory Park Place Hall.

In 2012, Park Place and Boardwalk Hall received exterior renovation upgrades. In 2019, they closed for extensive repairs and renovations to the interior totaling over $2 million.
