Portland Tower

Portland Tower, previously St. Andrew's House, is a brutalist high-rise building in Manchester, England. The tower is located on Portland Street from which it is named. The tower was one of the first high-rise buildings built in the 1960 and 1970s in the United Kingdom. In 2002 the west side of the tower was painted bright yellow and boasted the logo for the 2002 Manchester Commonwealth Games. It is now dwarfed by the CIS and Hilton Towers. Portland Tower, one of Manchester's tallest buildings when completed, has been renovated as part of Manchester city centre's regeneration. The tower is one of the tallest buildings in Manchester.
