| BALDWIN Tower was constucted circa 1905 and named after the nearby Baldwin Locomotive Works. It was built during the period when the PRR was still constructing its towers with individual designs - they were not yet standardized in appearance. BALDWIN is square in plan, set on a stuccoed, terra-cotta foundation with a fenestrated wood-frame second floor (with no bay) and deeply-projecting Arts-&-Crafts style hipped roof. The tower was built with an Armstrong lever electro-mechanical switch machine, which continued to be used until the tower was decommissioned. |
