History Lesson: Time Is Ticking
We've always been a big fan of history, and some days, [like when we run out of ideas], we turn to google hoping it will teach us something. Today's find is the now historic Colgate Clock along Jersey City's waterfront.
The clock was almost torn down when Goldman Sachs was building their tower. That would have been awful, least of all because we would have needed a new logo.
Facts we found interesting:
Shape inspired by Colgate's Octagon Soap
The surface is 1,963 square feet
The minute hand is 25' 10" long
Built in 1924
