The end of an era came Wednesday, May 25, 2005, as a crane
lowered the Akron Beacon Journal's old clock tower onto a flatbed
truck. The 26-foot, 4,800-pound tower, part of the city's skyline
since 1966, will be stripped for parts by junkyard artist P.R. Miller.

Not that I get to Akron all that often, but I'll miss seeing the old tower when I do.
ReplyDeleteBut, hey! I'll get to read advertising on the new digital one. Won't that be fun?
