UEA: Teaching wall
The teaching wall is a 450m-long, six-storey block at the University of East Anglia - designed to be a single long spine. Designed by architect Denys Lasdun in the 1960s.

The walkways resemble a street, with the teaching facilities to one side and the residential blocks on the other, slung between the entrance square of communal buildings at one end..."
