This morning, Mayor Sorace and representatives from Hamilton Watch unveiled the newly restored sidewalk clock that once graced Penn Square, now installed in Binns Park. This renewed icon is a symbol of Hamilton Watch's long history in Lancaster City, dating back to 1892.

Originally gifted to the City of Lancaster over 40 years ago, this clock stood in Penn Square until the square was renovated in the mid-2010's. After Hamilton opened its new flagship boutique in Lancaster in 2023, the company offered to restore the sidewalk clock as a symbol of its commitment to the community that Lancaster can enjoy for generations to come.
