UST Main Building Facade
-The building, designed by Fr. Roque Ruaño, O.P. 
-is the first earthquake-resistant building in the Philippines.
-The structure is a rectangular building having a dimension of 86 meters long and 74 meters wide with two interior courtyards or patios. 
-1920, Fr. Ruaño, O.P. was assigned to draw up plans for the UST Main Building to be constructed at the Sulucan property of theDominican Order.
-in the years 1922 and 1923, the plans were finally completed. However, some fine tunings may have been made on the design criteria as a result of the new lessons learned from the Great Kantō earthquake of September 1, 1923 which flattenedTokyo and Yokohama.^[3] Eventually, construction began in 1924.



The Arch of the Centuries
-is a monument in the University of Santo Tomas (UST) at Manila, that stands fifteen meters away from the     University's main vehicular entrance along España Boulevard. 
-It is declared by the National Museum as a National Treasure, 
-it serves as the link of the campus with its Intramuros roots and its Spanish heritage. 
-It has become a symbol of learning—the portal to greatness under which students and alumni (such as Rizal, Mabini, Quezon and Osmeña) have passed.
-The Arch contains Doric columns, but is Baroque in its details. The inscription on the arch says "Gateway to the history of the finest breed of Filipinos,"
-The Arch of the Centuries was originally erected in 1611 at Intramuros, where UST was originally found. When the University transferred to its present location at Sampaloc, the Arch was also carried piece-by-piece and was re-erected at the front of the main vehicular entrance of the University.
