Description:
  • This is a large monumental scale horizontal sundial. The gnomon, approximately 15-ft (4.5m) high has a brass patina and made using polygonal segments assembled almost in jigsaw puzzle style to form a large triangle. The gnomon sits at the north end of a large 30-ft (9.1m) brick plaza, wasting the area of the plaza except for a large imbedded brass plaque. Hours are simply marked by light colored granite with a pointed exterior aimed toward the edge of the plaza. Harder to see are half-hour light colored small granite triangles.
