Traditional Building Magazine Features Campbellsville Clock Tower
Old Red Courthouse, Dallas, TX
Billed as "The Historic Replication of the
Decade" - Campbellsville Industries has returned the famous
225'
Hoboken clock tower to the New Jersey Ferry Terminal on the
waterfront of the Hudson River, where it was originally
constructed 100 years ago. The project has also garnered
Campbellsville Industries a
2008 Merit Award
for Excellence in Architecture by
the New Jersey Chapter of AIA. The Ferry Terminal is located across
the river from Manhattan. The clock tower is part
of a 100-year anniversary of the birth of one of the most
renowned transportation centers in the United States. This clock
tower is the largest prefabricated clock tower in the world and
is designed to withstand 120 mph winds. Phase 1
and Phase 2,
included the window and clock section of the tower, and Phase 3 includes the open belfry
and and hipped roof with finial - all clad in 20 oz. copper left
in its natural state to age to a green patina to match the
copper on the terminal building below the tower. The four clock dials are
12 ft. diameter and are backlit at night. The "open" belfry
actually is enclosed with bird netting inset in copper frames. The 4
ft. high vertical copper letters spell out the word "Lackawanna",
and are
illuminated by fiber optic lighting. Click on the photo for more images of the
installation of this phase.
Campbellsville is working with Hall
Construction Company, Tishman Construction Company, and the
architectural firm of Beyer-Blender-Belle. The architect is
George Beckwith. We congratulate the New Jersey Transit
authority and the local officials who have returned one of
America's vanishing cultural and architectural resources for
this generation and for future generations to come. Experience the Campbellsville difference
for yourself - Campbellsville Industries,
is "Making History...TODAY!"
The
clock tower is finally back atop the courthouse after 70 years.

Campbellsville Industries' is
actively involved in helping to restore and preserve America's architectural
heritage, by replicating historic cupolas and clock towers that have been
removed from our courthouses through time and neglect, or those that have
fallen into a state of disrepair. You may view some of these historic
projects such as the clock tower restoration on the
Bell County Courthouse in Belton, TX., the
Montgomery County Courthouse in Clarksville, TN, the
Nassau County Courthouse in Fernandina Beach, FL, or the
Milam County Courthouse in Cameron, TX.
Campbellsville Industries celebrated 50 years of service to the church
and
construction industry in 2005, and has currently 55 consecutive years in
business. Campbellsville Industries pioneered the prefabricated
church
steeple and cupola and
thus rightly earned the nickname "The Steeple People"®
from architects across
the country. We have over 17,000
installations scattered throughout the 50 United States, Canada, Mexico, and
at least six foreign countries. Our trained installation crews log over
500,000 road miles annually.
Campbellsville Industries was
established in 1955 by local Campbellsville College (now
Campbellsville University) president Dr. John M. Carter, as
a practical means of obtaining funds for hard-pressed
students. From 1955 to 1965, 412 students worked their way
through college while at Campbellsville Industries to help
pay their college tuition.
Campbellsville Industries is proud of our role
in helping America to maintain our architectural heritage, by allowing many
counties and cities the affordable opportunity to restore their historic
architectural landmarks to the rightful positions in the skyline, without
the cost and maintenance problems associated with conventional stick-built
construction. Old-world craftsmanship married with new-world materials, help
many to turn back the clock and pass on their architectural heritage to
generations to come. Our product line has expanded from church steeples and
cupolas, to include: domes, dormers,
clocks, louvers, columns, cornices, balustrade railing, picket railing,
urns, finials, weathervanes, towers, baptistries, bulletin boards, and other
custom architectural metalwork. The employees at Campbellsville Industries like to think that we
are making history.....TODAY! Click on the "Profile" link above to learn

SUSTAINABILITY
Campbellsville Industries
makes a very sustainable and environmentally friendly product. Our steeples,
cupolas, balustrade, railings, cornices, and louvers; are fabricated from
structural aluminum extrusions, and most are clad in
aluminum. The use of aluminum in the fabrication of our products, unlike
some materials used by other manufacturers, means that not only does the
customer benefit from the lightweight and maintenance-free advantages of
this material, but also the environment benefits from the use of aluminum.
These benefits are compounded when you choose to recycle aluminum in the
products you buy. Recycled aluminum is identical to smelted aluminum, except
for one thing: it takes only 1/20 of the energy to make it. Less energy
means reduced greenhouse emissions. And like few other materials in the
recycling chain, aluminum recycles over and over again. Almost 70% of the aluminum ever produced is still in use, equaling 480
million metric tons (529 million tons) of a total 690 million metric tons
(761 million tons) manufactured since 1886. The extrusions and cladding that
are used in the manufacture of our products have high recycled content,
which benefits in the LEED certification of your project. Approximately,
95-98% of the materials our typical products can be recycled in the future.
Campbellsville's mission is to make a both a sustainable and architecturally
beautiful contribution to the world in which we live.
