In the picture below can you see the four different splines that come off of the clock mechanism? Those shafts go out to the four sides of the City Hall Clock to turn the hands. Pretty cool at how simple it all is.

Maggie Rosa emailed and invited me to take some video and pictures in the City Hall Bell Tower. I’m pretty happy with the footage. You’ll see them over the course of the next few days.

If you look at the top you can see the workers way up there. I’d be scared shitless.
The copper looks really nice all spiffed up. It’ll be beautiful once the screens come down -a newly restored sense of hope.
