The bright sun and dark clouds create a soft haze over the Albany clock tower. The 60-foot clock tower is located in the center of a roundabout at the train station and it is owned by the city of Albany. It was constructed in December of 2006 when the Greater Albany Rotary Club donated the two clocks. November 12, 2023.
