The view from the Hoover Tower, Stanford University

Wiki Entry : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoover_Tower

Hoover Tower is a 285 feet (87 m) structure on the campus of Stanford University in Stanford, California. The tower is part of the Hoover Institution, a research center founded by then-future U.S. president Herbert Hoover. Hoover Tower, inspired by the cathedral tower atSalamanca,^[1] was finished in 1941, the year of Stanford’s 50th anniversary. It was designed by architect Arthur Brown, Jr.^[2]

The tower has a carillon of 48 bells cast in Belgium and the Netherlands,^[3] and the general public is not allowed at the top of the tower when the bells ring. The largest bell weighs in at 2.5 tons. The first nine floors of the tower are library stacks and the next three floors are used for offices. Exiled Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn lived on the 11th floor for some time upon invitation by Stanford University before he moved in 1976.
