Sidewalk Clock
In the small town (population 3,000) closest to where I live, there is a pretty clock on a pole set into the sidewalk on Main Street. It doesn't appear to be working, currently, but I assume it was keeping time during its earlier days. I don't know why someone doesn't fix it, but it is still pretty.

Vancouver has a section of town with Steam clocks
Steam clocks...? Never heard of such a thing!
I looked up steam clocks and found this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_clock
How fun! 😊
Steam clock
A steam clock is a clock which is fully or partially powered by a steam engine. Only a few functioning steam clocks exist, most designed and built by Canadian horologist Raymond Saunders for display in urban public spaces. Steam clocks built by Saunders are located in Otaru, Japan; Indianapolis, United States; and the Canadian cities of Vancouver, Whistler and Port Coquitlam, all in British Columbia. Steam clocks by other makers are installed in St Helier, Jersey and at the Chelsea Farmers' Market in London, England.
Yeah, I've seen them in Vancouver and Whistler
