The Pearl clock tower is a relatively new addition to the city at only two years old. It was exciting when they announced that it was going to be built, and it makes a wonderful addition to the Pearl City Hall/Library/Police Department/Community Room/ Former High school that is the “town square”. It is made up of bricks from a former wing of the high school that was demolished to build the Community Room, and contains plaques on the inside commemorating everyone who ever graduated from the old High School. It is Modern in appearance, and is lighted from the inside to be able to change colors with the season… or flash rainbow at night on someone’s whim. For the longest the Pearl Clock tower did flash rainbow colors at night, earning it a nickname with Pearl’s Gay community, and placing Pearl at the butt of many jokes… however the true beauty of the clock is often ignored…
