The Tern Collective are turning Manchester into a giant sundial using its tallest building, Bettham Tower as the gnomon (sticky up bit in the middle). This will be done on Midsummer's Day, June 21st. Now I'm sure they've heard all the rainy city jokes so I just hope the sun puts its hat on for them that day.
They'll be documenting their progress hourly. You can follow them on twitter @McrTimePiece and find their website here.
I've always thought it a shame that Beetham Tower is such a meh, skyscraper. I'm glad it's being used for something interesting.
