Georgetown City Hall
It's better with the truck in it.
The Georgetown City Hall sits at the north end of Boeing Field. The clock tower is a replacement for a slightly taller one removed on orders of the U.S. Army (concerned that a plane would hit it while trying to land) at the beginning of World War II. A top secret B-29 prototype did crash nearby - into the Carstens packing plant and stockyards. As a historical account puts it, "Those who heard the surreal chorus of squealing pigs that followed the explosion described it as terrifying."
