The Clock at Union Station Kansas City

There are two legends about the clock shown in the photo .

First, it was often referred to as being the "Big Ben of the Plains," a play on the name of London's famous clock.
And, second, people would often tell friends to "Meet me under the clock" because it was easy to find and centrally located in the station.

I like the kind of garland created by the reflections ! It gives a touch of poetry to the mechanical clock. V.

A historic clock with a beautiful timeless design (sorry for the pun) and a prominent landmark for a rendezvous...
the symmetry and shine of the face are well captured...V
