From 1962, City Architects' Department.
One of the tallest buildings in the city, still among the most prominent, and clearly influenced by Lever House, New York. Originally to have been clad in curtain-walling (a light skin of glass and enamelled steel panels) it was thought that masonry was more suitable for the Granite City, hence the concrete and mosaic tile, with granite for the ground floor.
W A Brogden, 1988.
