RIT Kate Gleason Hall Clock
About
This clock lives on top of the Kate Gleason Hall dormitory at Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, NY (also known as building 35). This clock actually doesn't make any noise. Instead, a bell tower with a speaker in it exists at the Schmitt Interfaith Center on campus, which is a short walk away.
Since the bell is still audible when the clock is in view, its good enough to make a bot!
