#3 Timepiece 108
Fair Haven Middle School
New Haven, Connecticut
Close Window
The building is presently in the process of extensive
renovation and when completed at the end of this year, this timepiece
will be installed and permanently on display in the grand entrance
foyer. The vertical shaft will extend from the timepiece up through
each of the floors to the bevel geared differential, located in the
tower, driving the motion work for each of four 7' cast iron and
glass dials. This timepiece will serve not only as a functional work
of art, but also a teaching tool for the students. |
