Shafer Tower : ウィキペディア英語版 | Shafer Tower
Shafer Tower is a free-standing bell tower, or campanile with a carillon and chiming clock in the middle of the campus of Ball State University. Dedicated in 2002, Shafer Tower has become an unofficial landmark of Ball State University. It stands in the median of McKinley Avenue on University Green, the northern quadrangle of campus. A narrow staircase in the tower leads to the control room of the carillon, which has 48 custom-made bells. From here a musician can play the instrument on special occasions or for concerts. The bells are programmed by computer to play the Westminster Quarters to announce the time between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Due to a construction defect in the type of cement used to build the tower, most of Shafer Tower literally had to be built twice.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher=The Ball State Daily News )〕 The architect of record was Edmund Hafer Associates of Evansville, Indiana.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher=College of Architecture and Planning )〕 ==References==
