Either is correct. I would disagree but they need to differ. The following place is a modifier: A place for asking questions implies that the place was

  • intended to be a place for questions; a place to ask questions implies that it’s a place
  • you can ask questions and not have to be for that purpose.

I like to think a university is a great place to do research, but people say that their pub is a good

place to ask questions. So any university is a great place to ask questions.
