Clock Tower Apartment



Laurie sent me this NY Times slideshow about an apartment at the top of a clock tower. Yes, those are working clocks.



Don't you wish you had an extra $25 million lying around?

    Someone should buy it and rent it out by the day or week for tourists. I'm off to shake the piggy banks...

    I love the look of that place, but I've got to wonder how loud the ticking would be.

    That is beautiful, I wish I had enough money to get it.

    Makes me think of this place:

    The pix here aren't as complete as the ones from a magazine article I saw, but it's amazing...

    Here's another cool clock place - http://www.michaeldavisarchitects.com/projects/lofts/theclock/index.html

    Cheaper too. I think I saw somewhere that the last time it sold it was around $800k.

    The best pictures are in the "press" links you get after you click on the Timeut icon.
