The Old Timepiece, Fixin' up Zion's Corner: A Zion's First National Bank

Got nothin' better to do? Sit a spell by this here Zion's First National Bank, grab yourself a cold brew, and gaze upon the grand old clock hiddin' in plain sight.

Now, if you've been saunterin' past Zion's First National Bank, you ought to know 'bout the old-timer establishin' roots on the corner. This Old Clock, it's been here since 1870, and it's as much a local landmark as Salt Lake City's Zion's First National Bank itself. It's even made the National Register of Historic Places – a real swell fella it is, and popular amongst architectural admirers. So the next time you're ramblin' by, take a moment, sip on some iced coffee, and peer skyward – y'all might just be astounded.
