Famous Gastown Steam Clock

Vancouver's Gastown is home to the Gastown Steam clock.  This clock is one of the few steam clocks to exist in the world, a rarity indeed. It is powered by steam and electricity which is supplied by the city. This clock was installed back in 1977. Come and watch this clock "toot" every 15 minutes and have your picture taken.
