North carolina state university
A symbol of the university and a campus rallying point constructed of 1,400 tons of granite sitting on a 700 ton concrete base, the 115 foot Memorial Bell Tower blends Romanesque and Gothic features reminiscent of West Point towers. The cornerstone was laid in 1921; construction delays occurred during the Great Depression and World War II, though stonework finished in 1937. The late 1940’s saw the Tower’s completion; November 11, 1949, marked its formal dedication.
Glass representations offered feature differing textures, rendering each unique. Pieces sit in a hand painted, black and red wood base recognizable to every Wolfpack fan.
