Civic Clock Tower

The Civic Clock Tower on the southwest side of City Hall in Riverside is one of numerous monuments and memorials recognized by the City in its list of designated public artworks. Built in 1966, a small memorial plaque indicates that it was dedicated in 1971 “In Honored Memory of Officers Christiansen and Teel Killed in Line of Duty April 2, 1971.” The 25-foot tall tower is made of cast concrete and acts as a cascading fountain, mounted within a shallow pool.
