Rockwell Automation Headquarters, Corporate high-rise building in Milwaukee, United States
The Rockwell Automation Headquarters rises 283 feet above Milwaukee streets, featuring four massive clock faces visible from multiple directions across the city.
The building, completed in 1962, originally served as the Allen-Bradley Company headquarters before becoming part of Rockwell Automation through a major acquisition in 1985.
The clock tower earned the nickname 'Polish Moon' due to its location in a historically Polish neighborhood that later transformed into a Mexican-American community.
The illuminated clock faces require 35 kilowatts of power to operate and serve as navigation aids for ships traversing Lake Michigan at night.
The structure contains the second-largest four-sided clock in the world, with faces nearly twice the size of London's Big Ben timepiece.
