I'm going to describe a modern building in Manchester.
It's called the Beetham Tower, and it's the tallest building in the city, with about 50 floors.
Although it's called the Beetham Tower, most people know this building as the Hilton Hotel.
In fact, the bottom half of the tower is the hotel, and the top half is apartments.
The apartments are expensive because the location and views make them very desirable.
I'm not sure if I like the design of the building, it's just a huge glass tower, but it definitely stands out.
It has become a famous landmark in the city.
You can see it as you approach Manchester, and it's an easy place to meet people because it's so distinctive and easy to find.
The most interesting thing about the Beetham Tower is that, there is a bar on the twenty third floor which has spectacular views of the city; it's definitely the best vantage point in Manchester because there are no walls, only huge windows, so you can look out over the city in any direction.
I'd recommend anyone who visits Manchester to go there and experience the view.
