Langford Green Situated in front of the Doak Campbell Stadium, the Langford Green serves as a venue for performances and speeches, including concerts and similar events that are not organized by the university. The prime location of the venue allows for a fair number of spectators.
Landis Green Rests in the center of the campus as a student hub and area for recreation. Located in the center of the Florida State campus, Landis Green rests in front of the Landis Hall dormitory. Both hold their names after Cary D. Landis, who served as the Attorney General for Florida from 1931 to 1938. The Green serves as both an aesthetic place on the campus and as a location for student recreational activities throughout the year. Within the Green is the Legacy Fountain that saw construction in 2005, much later than the establishment of the green in 1931, though the green did not see its formal name until 1936. The university's Strozier Library rests opposite from the dormitory on the other end of the green, allowing the green to act as a further hub for students and faculty.
Union Green Frequent area of university events and demonstrations outside the student center. This area outside the Student Union of the campus is the smallest of the plots on campus, but due to its location sees a proportionally great amount of foot traffic with the university using the area for many special events. Due to the limited space available to the green, it has seen different use from the other open spaces on campus in that instead of recreational activities, more formal events take place. Student demonstrations, university fairs, and promotional events are all prominent examples of what the union green sees regularly.
