dbo:abstract
  • Litchfield Towers, comúnmente conocido en el campus como "Towers", es un complejo de residencias estudiantiles en campus principal de la Universidad de Pittsburgh en el vecindario de en Pittsburgh, Pensilvania. Litchfield Towers es la residencia de estudiantes más grande y más alta de la Universidad de Pittsburgh y alberga a aproximadamente 1850 estudiantes.​ Diseñado por el estudio de arquitectura Deeter & Ritchey,​ el complejo se completó en 1963 y recibió el nombre del ex canciller Edward Litchfield tras su muerte en un accidente aéreo en 1968. El complejo consta de tres torres, que durante la construcción fueron designadas A, B y C en los planos arquitectónicos.​ Los nombres se quedaron después de que se completaron las torres, y las torres todavía se llaman así hoy. Las torres A, B y C albergan principalmente a estudiantes de primer año de primer año. Las torres son todas de diferentes alturas y difieren ligeramente en su alojamiento. La torre B es la más alta de las tres, con 22 pisos.​ La Torre A tiene 19 pisos de altura y la Torre C tiene 16 pisos de altura. Las habitaciones de las Torres A y B son del mismo tamaño, aproximadamente 5,2 por 3,4 m.​ Sin embargo, estas medidas no son exactas porque las tres torres son de forma cilíndrica (aunque en realidad tienen veinte lados) y, por lo tanto, las habitaciones son algo trapezoidales.

  • Litchfield Towers, commonly referred to on campus as "Towers", is a complex of residence halls at the University of Pittsburgh's main campus in the Oakland neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Litchfield Towers is both the largest and tallest residence hall at the University of Pittsburgh, housing approximately 1,850 students. Designed by the architectural firm of Deeter & Ritchey, the complex was completed in 1963 and was named for former chancellor Edward Litchfield following his death in an airplane crash in 1968. The complex consists of three towers, which during construction were designated A, B, and C in the architectural plans. The names stuck after the towers were completed, and the towers are still so named today. Towers A, B, and C house mostly first-year freshmen. The towers are all of different heights, and differ slightly in their living accommodations. Tower B is the tallest of the three, at 22 stories. Tower A is 19 stories tall, and Tower C is 16 stories in height. Rooms in Towers A and B are the same size, roughly 17 ft (5.2 m) by 11 ft (3.4 m). These measurements are not exact, however, because the three towers are cylindrical in shape (although actually twenty-sided) and the rooms themselves are therefore somewhat trapezoidal. (en)
