Greymouth Clock Tower


This clock tower on Manawhera Quay in Greymouth was built in 1992 right next to the railway station. In 2017 fundraising began in order to start on giving it a facelift along with earthquake strengthening. Greymouth Lions and Rotary Club raised $14,000 towards the project.

Linking up with Weekend Reflections and The Weekend Roundup.

I like your clock tower and sure like you all wouldn't like an Earthquake to mess it up if possible. We are having a lot of fairly large earthquakes here in Texas as the Fracking for Oil continues to a more rapid speed. Shakes dishes off the tables but not much visible structural damage so far. Scares people though, could cause heart attacks. Not good.
