Daytona Beach Coquina Clock Tower

Daytona Beach Coquina Clock Tower, Gothic Revival clock tower in Daytona Beach, United States.

The Daytona Beach Coquina Clock Tower is a tapering tower of rough-hewn coquina stone in tan, gray and rusty red, rising from a square base to a slender shaft capped by a smaller square section with a pitched roof. Two round clock faces with black numerals and hands sit high on its front faces, and a metal weather vane with a bird figure crowns the top. A circular pool with a low stone rim and four short square pillars surrounds the base.

The tower was built of concrete and coquina rock between 1936 and 1937 by the Works Progress Administration, part of the Oceanfront Park Complex designed by local architect Alan J. MacDonough, Sr. The complex was dedicated on January 1, 1938, the day before Mayor Edward H. Armstrong, its driving force, died. The park entered the National Register of Historic Places on February 25, 1999.

The tower's two round clock faces carry black numerals and hands, not letters. Its coquina-and-concrete construction ties it to the Oceanfront Park Complex, dedicated on January 1, 1938, the day before Mayor Edward H. Armstrong, who pushed hardest for the park, died.

The tower stands within the Oceanfront Park Complex, a short walk from the beach and the coquina Bandshell. The complex was built on ground leveled by WPA crews who removed more than 48,000 cubic yards of sand, so the tower sits on flat, open parkland. Look for the Edward H. Armstrong Monument nearby; it still bears no inscription.

The clock carries a connection to the town's motorsport heritage through the name Sir Malcolm Campbell, which links the structure to the legendary racing and speed history of Daytona Beach. This unexpected link transforms the timepiece into a monument to an unusual chapter of local history.
