- This replica of a turn of the century street clock replaces the public clock that was originally over the First National Bank entrance. When the First National Bank failed, the clock was moved to the Punta Gorda State Bank at the southwest corner of King Street and Marion Avenue. That bank became First Florida which moved to a new building. The clock was then sold to a bank in Wauchula, FL. Funds for the present street clock were raised by concerned citizens in 1990 when negotiations to buy the original clock back proved fruitless. Chimes ring on the half hour and hour. *See National Bank Building.
