The Science Wing (S-Wing) and Humanities Wing (H-Wing), known together as the Andrews Building, is an academic building of the University of Toronto and the oldest structure on its Scarborough campus in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The megalithic brutalist structure was built in 1964, near Highland Creek in the Toronto district of Scarborough. The Andrews Building is noted for its unique architecture, described as futuristic and forward-thinking for its time. It was one of the first major commissions of architect and professor John Andrews at the age of 29, who later went on to help design the CN Tower. Its expansive exposed concrete structure, stepped design and prominent chimneys have made it the subject of international attention and acclaim since its opening. The building was featured on the cover of Time in 1967 and has appeared in several films and television series, including The Shape of Water (2017), and the music videos for "Secrets" by The Weeknd and "National Treasures" by Drake.
