Talk:List of University of Kentucky buildings

Floor count
Should a "walkout" basement just be listed as "B" or as an additional floor? Cmadler 21:30, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * That's a good question. What building is this for BTW? I would judge the floor count per what is listed on the elevators. If it has B2 B1 1 2 3, etc., then I would consider it to have two basements and three floors, for instance.  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 23:49, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, both sides of King Library have walk-out basements. King North is two stories plus a walkout basement (before the renovation, the basement housed the art library), King South is three stories plus a walkout basement (which housed the art library when King North was being renovated - I don't know what's there now). In both cases, the basement is a full story. Cmadler 11:42, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * The original King Library's first floor isn't technically a basement, per se. Before the additions, it was 4 floors (something I need to update to reflect but I'll wait) and IIRC, it doesn't have a full basement. The addition south I'm not for sure of since its such a confusing mess, but I would count it as a seperate structure for floor count reasoning since its built on a higher elevation - that and the floors themselves do not match between the original and the addition. Is King Library North three stories?  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 16:42, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Both buildings have (or had, 6 years ago) lower level entrances on the east sides, facing toward the Fine Arts Building for King North, and toward the President's house for South. So that would be three stories for North and four for the original (now called South).Cmadler 13:50, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
 * That sounds good. It's such a quagmire that while poking around in the King Library South complex before the break, I somehow managed to get lost for 10 minutes. I did find a lot of interesting artefacts throughout the building though...  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 16:44, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Introduction
The mention of Patterson Office Tower in the introduction does not make sense. First it appears to state that POT is the tallest construction project underway or in planning. Then it states that POT was built in 1968 - OK so it's the highest EXISTING building. But wait, Kirwan Tower and Blanding Tower are 23 stories each! Are the levels in POT 28% taller than the levels in the dormitory towers? (I have always thought that the dorm towers had low ceilings!) I have also heard it said that although POT is not the tallest building from ground level, because it is built on a hill, the top of POT is the highest point on campus or in Lexington. I don't know the facts about these buildings, but could someone who does know clean the intro? Cmadler 14:18, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I did a small rewrite to differentiate the two variations, however, the tallest point at UK's campus needs to be cited. I recall reading an article about the POT tower being the tallest, however, I can't find it now...  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 16:48, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Merger proposal
I propose that Anderson Hall (Lexington, Kentucky) be merged into List of University of Kentucky buildings. As the former is only a few sentences long, and the building in question has been demolished, I believe that this article is superfluous, and that adding the contents of this article to the list would cause no problems as far as article size.

 * Oppose because buildings in the University of Kentucky are independently notable. 137.122.64.159 (talk) 17:28, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
