Our crews are now building the concrete foundation and pedestal for an enormous sundial sculpture being constructed in Battle Point Park.
The dial’s swooping crescents are being crafted by a local metal fabricator, with installation to be completed in the new year.
When finished, the 10-foot, metal and stone sundial will demonstrate the ancient art of chronometry by actually keeping time.
The project has been in the works by the Battle Point Astronomical Association for nearly five years, and will sit on the berm just north of the Ritchie Observatory.
You can track the sundial’s progress at the BPAA’s website, where regular updates and photographs are posted.
