Return the power to the Nylex Clock

Return the power to the Nylex Clock The Nylex Clock was erected in 1961, and is a much-loved Melbourne icon, perhaps not so much for its aesthetics, but its utilitarian value.

Above the sign sits an LED clock that shows the time as well as the temperature.

35 degrees today in Melbourne! Would be great to see the temperature and time again on our Melbourne landmark, the Nylex clock. Can anyone share any updates on progress?

What do you think about the proposed development plans with the new Malt District in Richmond? It sounds fun and exciting for Melbourne...although I've not yet read the finer details. In any case, I hope to see the Nylex clock re-powered lit up with time and temperature for all of us Melburnians to enjoy - just like the good 'ol days!

AGL Energy Limited (AGL) has answered the call of Melbournians to bring the city’s iconic Nylex clock back to life. The heritage listed clock, which sits atop silos on Punt Road in Richmond, has been in a permanent state of black-out since 2009.
