Steam Powered Clock.

Steam Powered Clock

There is a steam powered clock in downtown Lansing near the river, across from the convention center. It was placed there in 1997 by the Rotary Club of Lansing and is supposed to chime on the hour, but while I was there it did not chime, so it might be temporarily broken. It is still interesting to see.
