Livingstone Tower, Skyscraper in Glasgow, United Kingdom
The Livingstone Tower features reinforced concrete construction with dark green glass panels and orange metal frames across its fifteen floors.
Construction of the tower began in April 1962 on a site previously occupied by houses and a church in the Townhead development area.
The tower received its name in 1965 to honor David Livingstone, who studied at the medical school of Anderson's College in Glasgow.
The building includes four Otis Autotronic elevators and two underground parking levels to accommodate students and faculty members.
The structure houses departments of the University of Strathclyde, including Computer Sciences, Mathematics, Statistics, and Business School facilities.
