Electric
Time Company, Inc. of Medfield, Massachusetts is pleased to
acknowledge one of their recent projects, Foundry Square in Redding,
California.
Founded in 1928, Electric Time is the world’s oldest electric clock manufacturer. For over 70 years they’ve been designing and manufacturing quality, custom-made tower clocks, post clocks, and other special timepieces. Utilizing the finest materials and craftsmanship, they create clocks from their designs or yours.
Some
representative projects include: Independence Hall Bi-Centennial,
Tiffany's New York Main Store 5th Avenue (1940's), Tiffany's Stores
around the world, Disneyworld (1980's/1995) and Disneyland (1950's),
Six Flags over Georgia (1960's-1995), Six Flags over New Jersey
(1993), MGM Studios (1990's), Dollywood (1995), Hershey Park, Harvard
University (1920-1995), University of California at San Luis Obispo

Department Store in New York City, Arlington Heights Race Track
(1980's), Wrigley Field in Chicago, IL (1920's), and Kirkland Air
Force Base in Albuquerque, NM. Foundry Square can now be added
to that list!
Foundry Square’s custom 60” back lighted silhouette clock is unique in its design and its manufacture. This one of a kind clock was created in the Electric Time factory by their skilled craftsmen. Special care was taken to provide halo-lit markers and hands using the latest in technology, LED lighting.
Of
particular mention on this project is the superb engineering that
made the Foundry Square clock the special timepiece that it is. From
the creation of the initial drawings to the final assembly and
testing in the factory, the Foundry Square clock is an evolution of
engineering, craftsmanship and quality that will provide shoppers
with a landmark for years to come.
