Plain City Clock Tower Being Removed For Repairs

wikipedia

The historic clock tower in Plain City will be removed for repairs on Saturday. The cost to repair the Seth Thomas clock is 45-thousand dollars. Private donations and a state grant are funding the repairs that are expected to be completed by the fall. The clock is getting a new paint job and new lights, along with new cables and wood fixtures. It is one of two all-mechanical tower clocks left in the country.
