The Corner Public Clock of Scientology Church in Detroit

The Public Clock at the corner of the Church of Scientology in Detroit goes unnoticed unless you are fascinated by public clocks like I am :smiley:

The Church undertook some impressive work during the Coronavirus lockdown and has garnered good support and a positive reputation among the locals.

Here’s a view looking from the corner:

Here is the public corner clock from across the street.

The view improves as we move closer, but not too close.

So I took this photo midway.

Here’s the view of the Scientology Church public clock looking towards the GM Global Headquarters building.

There is also a marker tablet showing that the church’s history goes back to 1701, but the date of the public clock remains unknown.
