The outstanding feature of this clock is that it is mounted on a tower about 30 feet (10m) high, made of gleaming polished aluminum. The tower is on the plaza area which is about 20 feet (7m) above street level, so it really towers.
The clock face is a plain, round with white background and plain black numbers for 12, 3, 6, 9 and marks for the other numbers. It is enclosed in a polished aluminum case.
The tower is composed of two pairs of rectangular poles that meet at the top. In the center, arranged in a diamond pattern is a sign, half green and half red with white lettering. The sign reads on the left (green side, "Express Bus Terminal;" on the right (red side) "Intercity Bus Terminal."
