Podla anglickej verzie Wikipédie je "Manderlák (slovensky: Obchodný a obytný dom Manderla) výšková obytná budova v Bratislave na Slovensku. S výškou 45 metrov (147 stôp) s 11 poschodiami bola postavená v rokoch 1934 až 1935 a bola vôbec prvou výškovou budovou na Slovensku a najvyššou v krajine medzi 1935 a 1967.
Budovu navrhli a postavili nemeckí architekti Christian Ludwig, Emerich Spitzer a Augustín Danielis pre slovenského podnikatela a mäsiara Rudolfa Manderlu, ktorý sa inšpiroval dizajnom bitúnkov v Chicagu. Ide o prvú obývatelnú výškovú budovu na Slovensku a meno dostala po samotnom Manderlovi.
Ked zacali formovat koncepciu budovy, traja architekti sa rozhodli, že by mali zostat verní tradicným architektonickým štýlom, preto ich najväcšou výzvou bolo rozhodnút, do akej miery by mali využívat princípy modernej architektúry. Zaciatkom 30. rokov 20. storocia zacali navrhovat viaceré riešenia, z ktorých niektoré vychádzali z tradicných slovenských architektonických štýlov, niektoré portrétovali modernistickú architektúru 30. rokov.
Nakoniec stavebná firma Alexandra Feiglera a miestna pobocka viedenskej stavebnej firmy Pittel+Brausewetter zrealizovali návrh, ktorý sa vyznacuje zdržanlivou puristickou striedmostou. Postavili vežu, ktorá mala jedenást poschodí, co bola na svoju dobu nadpriemerná výška, vzdorovito stojaca na štyroch pevných stlpoch.

According to the English version of Wikipedia, "the Manderlák (Slovak: Obchodný a obytný dom Manderla) is a high-rise residential building in Bratislava, Slovakia. Standing at 45 metres (147 ft) tall with 11 floors and built between 1934 and 1935, the construction was the first-ever high-rise building in Slovakia and the tallest in the country between 1935 and 1967.
The building was designed and built by German architects Christian Ludwig, Emerich Spitzer and Augustín Danielis for the Slovak businessman and butcher Rudolf Manderla, who was inspired by the design of slaughterhouses in Chicago. It is the first habitable high-rise building in Slovakia and was named after Manderl himself.
When they started to shape up the concept of the building, the three architects decided they should somwhow remain faithful to the traditional architecture styles, therefore their biggest challenge was to decide at what extent they should use the principles of modern architecture. In the early 1930s, they began proposing several solutions, some of them coming from the traditional Slovak architectural styles, and some of them portraiting modernist architecture of the 1930s.
In the end, the construction firm of Alexander Feigler and the local branch of the Viennese construction company Pittel+Brausewetter realized the design, which is characterized by restrained purist moderation. They built a tower that had eleven floors, which was above the average height for its time, defiantly standing on four solid pillars.
