Summary

[edit]
Description

The Art Deco clock and bell tower atop the former Boston Store building is a unique landmark in downtown Erie and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Wikipedia has these interesting details:

"The design of the clock tower "recalls religious, civic, and collegiate themes, and became an instant landmark on the Erie skyline."[4] Each of the four clock faces are 12 feet (4 m) in diameter and have "black metal Roman numerals [on] a background of white translucent glass panels".[3] Terra-cotta circles are inlaid across the top of the tower and "above the last step of the buttresses".[4] The lower section of the tower houses the bell behind a geometric tracery.[3]"
