The clock tower atop the Willimantic town hall

I took this picture of the Willimantic town hall. A fine example of Victorian architecture, this clock tower appears atop the Willimantic town hall. It's also hilariously suggestively-shaped, right down to the little ridge around the, ah, crown. I chuckle every time I drive by it. grendel|khan 07:08, 2005 Jan 4 (UTC)

  • Minor object. Flat colors and fuzzy clock face. Mgm|(talk) 11:30, Jan 7, 2005 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Agree with MacGyverMagic. Just out of interest, as I'm planning on buying the 300D, do you like the camera? --Fir0002 07:35, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • oppose. Fee, Fi, Fo, Fum, I smell a troll. Surely Image:Kiritimati-EO.JPG was good enough if you wanted a phallic image. -- Solipsist 21:05, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)]]
  • Support. I'm a fan of architecture. I've been all over New England and yet to see a clock tower like this. There's a minor tower behind it which is not visible in the picture. The phallic nature of the clock tower is more the Victorian Architecture which that town is famous for (apparently there are more 'virgin' Victorian houses there than any other place).

  • Object. This is probably an interesting thing to see in reality, but this picture seems a bit dull to me. Methinks, the colors just don't grab you and make you think "Wow!" like a FP ought too. -SocratesJedi | Talk 19:23, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)
