Preserve Us From The House Of Clocks
Sufjan Stevens’ “Chicago” and Coldplay’s “Clocks”. See if you can spot the Pink Floyd!
The House Of Clocks is a famous tourist destination in the historical Shambles district of Chicago, the only part of the city to survive the Great Fire. Few know of the area nowadays, and those that do usually choose to stay a sizable distance away from it, but the foolhardy can purchase Neil Gaiman and Gene Wolfe’s guidebook, A Walking Tour of the Shambles.
Oh, and you really shouldn’t go to preserveusfromthehouseofclocks.com
