Hilton/Beetham tower

£35.00
Tax included.
Manchester’s skyline has changed dramatically in the last few years but for a long time the 47 floor Hilton also known as Beetham tower was the tallest building creating an unforgettable skyline. Whilst the lower levels of the building are about creating a place for people to enjoy, which is rooted in the life of the city, the top is light and appears to challenge gravity.

The glazed skin of the buffer zone to the south façade cantilevers above roof level to form a crystalline blade. This glazed element blurs the distinction between the building and the surrounding skies and is intended to make the crown of the building appear to dematerialise.
