main buildings
Central campus edifices
The main buildings of a place are its most important or central structures—typically the primary facilities where essential activities occur.
A university's main buildings might house administration and classrooms; a hospital's main buildings contain patient care.
The phrase distinguishes core structures from outbuildings, annexes, or support facilities: The fire damaged several outbuildings but spared the main buildings.
