County of City: Kay County
Location of clock: City Hall - west tower, Ponca City
Architect: Richard Winterrowd and Troy Lewis of Lewis Associates Architects of Ponca City
Contractor: Hatcher Construction Services, Inc.
Built in 2003
The original architectural plans for the tower included a clock; however, lack of funds prevented the plans from becoming a reality.
The clock and carillon were installed in 1998 with funds donated in the name of Larry T. Hughes,
a beloved and respected community leader. The carillon music, romantic, nostalgic and comforting
to hear every day all over downtown, is a fitting memorial to a man born on West Grand Avenue
who was devoted to his home town, loved the pride people took in it and believed
in giving to his community. When the music plays, citizens remember Larry Hughes.
