Litchfield Towers A and B offer double rooms while Litchfield Tower C includes only single rooms. The original A, B, and C names were simply shorthand abbreviations used by the Towers’ designers. Though officially renamed the “Litchfield Towers” in 1971 after Pitt’s 12th chancellor, Edward H. Litchfield (1914-1968), the A, B, and C names have stuck ever since. The design of the towers has earned several architectural awards.
