This Roland Emmett water powered clock was installed in 1973 and is called 'The Aqua Tintinnabulator', and still works perfectly, opening up and moving every quarter of an hour

  • Except, of course, it doesn't works as it used to because it looks like it has been butchered.

    The original color scheme was blue and green and natural bronze. The animals inside the 'flower' would revolve during the chime and the clock itself played a Rameau harpsichord piece (2nd Gigue en Rondeau - IIRC).

    If they can't keep it as Emmet intended then they should rip it out and donate it to the Emmet Collection of the Ontario Science Museum.
