View of the upper portion of the Wheeler Clock located at the corner of Canon and Manitou Avenues, Manitou Springs, Colo. The four-sided clock tower is topped by a statue of Hygeia, daughter of Aesculapius, god of medicine. It was donated by Jerome Wheeler in 1889 to commemorate the opening of the Manitou Mineral Water Bottling Company. Cast by the J.L. Mott Iron Works of Trenton, N.J., the clock also contains water fountains at its base for thirsty dogs.
