Interesting 508 Mount in Tioga Center, NY

[uncommonsense]

'Evening folks.

I was browsing the interwebs and found this article. I know it will be interesting to our east coast folk that the 508 has gone east. Otherwise I guess there's really no place to put this, so I apologize for creating a new thread for something so inconsequential, but I thought the mount on this siren was very interesting.

Looks as though Tioga Center, NY got themselves a new 508 as a flood siren, but wow is that ever a ramshackle tower if I ever saw one. Doesn't look too high, either.

Here's the article and the 508.
