Abstract: A quasitoric manifold (resp. a small cover) is a $2n$-dimensional (resp. an $n$-dimensional) smooth closed manifold with an effective locally standard action of $(S^1{)}^n$ (resp. $(mathbb{Z}_2{)}^n$) whose orbit space is combinatorially an $n$-dimensional simple convex polytope $P$. In this paper we study them when $P$ is a product of simplices. A generalized Bott tower over $F$, where $F=C$ or $R$, is a sequence of projective bundles of the Whitney sum of $F$-line bundles starting with a point. Each stage of the tower over $F$, which we call a generalized Bott manifold, provides an example of quasitoric manifolds (when $F=C$) and small covers (when $F=R$) over a product of simplices. It turns out that every small cover over a product of simplices is equivalent (in the sense of Davis and Januszkiewicz cite{DJ}) to a generalized Bott manifold. But this is not the case for quasitoric manifolds and we show that a quasitoric manifold over a product of simplices is equivalent to a generalized Bott manifold if and only if it admits an almost complex structure left invariant under the action. Finally, we show that a quasitoric manifold $M$ over a product of simplices is homeomorphic to a generalized Bott manifold if $M$ has the same cohomology ring as a product of complex projective spaces with $Q$ coefficients.
