Sprucing Up the Clocktower

The crane had been parked at the shopping center all weekend. A couple of miles away tall buildings are being constructed. Had it lost its way?

The answer came early this morning. The clocktower, the only structure that was higher than one story, was being repainted.

The owner took a couple of years to lick his wounds from being turned down by the City Council. The addition of new tenants indicates that he's reconciled that the property will remain a shopping center, so it may as well be a good one.
