Millennium Clock, Dublin

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Millennium_Clock,_Dublin an entity of type: Thing

The Millennium Clock was a six-ton installation designed by and to celebrate the passing of the millennium, sponsored by the National Lottery. It took the form of a digital seven-segment display counting down the number of seconds to the year 2000 submerged under the surface of the River Liffey on the west side of O'Connell Bridge in Dublin city centre. It was turned on in March 1996 but suffered from technical problems, including becoming obscured by mud and algae. It was ultimately removed in December of the same year. These issues resulted in the clock being referred to as the "Time in the Slime" or the "Chime in the Slime". rdf:langString
