Salmon Run Tower

This bell tower is located in downtown Vancouver in Esther Short Park, Washington state's oldest public square. The bells were cast in the Netherlands. Four 5-foot bronze salmon "leap" off the tower as jets of water spray down the sides. A Chinook Indian story is inscribed in the basalt column around the base of the tower. The highlight is its animated, three-scene glockenspiel depicting a Chinook Indian Tribal legend which plays several times throughout the day.
