First occupancies are next week, and I am one of them! I did my PDI last week and got a tour of the lobby, gym, etc. A lot of the common areas are not done yet but are far enough along to start the move-ins.
It's a good corner. You can hear the bells from both the Cathedral and Old City Hall from there. The Old City Hall clock runs 2 or 3 mintues behind the Cathedral.
ap: Up there in your tower, have you ever been tempted to ring your City Hall bell three minutes before the clock shows the hour? That way the sounds would be in unison.
That would be no fun. I like that Old City Hall, the Cathedral and St. Lawrence Hall all show different time. No whizz-bang atomic clock coordination on those old mechanical timepieces.
It is the only set of 12 on the continent, installed about ten years ago. Dead ringer Derek Sawyer, who died last summer, was the bell master who brought them here.
