About This File

This clock tower, one of Hong Kong's most famous landmarks, marks the site of the old Kowloon-Canton Railway terminus, where people once boarded a train for the world's longest overland journey (between Hong Kong and London). When the old railway station was demolished in 1978, the public outcry was so great that the station's clock tower was left alone. Since then, it has become the centerpiece of a public square popular for events such as watching fireworks and New Year's Eve celebrations.

 

Though it goes under parks and recreation, the clock tower is a pseudo-landmark, so it costs 3500 SL to plop and 100 SL to maintain... that's not very expensive considering that the plop cost of Big Ben is 75000 SL!

 

This is my first BAT-created building, I hope you enjoy it!

This will blend it very well with the other parks..I do like this very much..I don't judge by the pics because I know they look totally different in game. Great job and keep them coming. Can never have enough parks or plazas for the game

This is pretty sweet for your first BAT... I like it a lot and would make a good center piece for your downtown and also a good starting point! Great job.

Nice looking tower, and I like clock towers. As a suggestion, perhaps you could do a version with interior lights instead of the tower seeming to glow from without. Otherwise, you did a very nice job.

Wow, thanks for all the great feedback! About nightlighting, the clock tower is floodlit in real life so that's why I made it glow like that.
