Database Correction: Rajabai Clock Tower

https://skyscraperpage.com/b29481/mumbai/rajabai-clock-tower

While it is called a “clock tower”, the building is actually much more than just a clock on top of a tower.
Several lower floors are used for the Mumbai University admin offices. Even the Mumbai University library is located within this building.

So, should the Structural Type still be Tower or Lowrise?

I usually mark the structure type as tower in cases like this, with lowrise as a secondary structure type.

Had the tower been less dominating compared to the whole structure, or shorter than 35 m, I'd mark it as lowrise with tower as secondary type.

I see. Thank you for clarifying.
Another question – its height is significantly greater than 35m. Should it still be a Lowrise?

Imho: If it's only the tower that is taller than 35 m, then yes. If the other parts of the building would also be taller than 35 then it's a highrise.

The other parts of the building are certainly not taller than 35m. So, lowrise it is!
Thank you for clarifying! You may move this to Completed Requests, if you like.

I like to know if any other editor has an opinion first.
