Elevated view of Milwaukee Civic Center Plaza. Entire clock tower is visible, with the plaza around the base, and other buildings in the background.  The clock hangs from the inside roof of the three-legged tower in a teardrop-shaped section. Below the clock is a hexagonal structure on a pedestal, which holds two scenes of historic Milwaukee.  The historic scenes are on stages set in two of the sides of this structure and go into action alternately at regular intervals.
