The Happy Clock

Many times I've passed this building downtown, but never from this angle. I'm not sure how long this 'happy clock' has been there. I like how the air conditioners make two eyes.

Can you tell what time it is?

Very unusual clock. Is it about 2:30?

Nature ID, the shadow is from the sun; same source as for the air conditioners' shadows.

It was 11:10.
