A landmark event will take place on Pittsburgh's South Side on Thursday evening, as an Allegheny County Icon again lights up the night.

At 6 p.m. the clock above the Duquesne Brewery on the South Side will be lit, after being dark while the new sponsor, AT&T, had its logo prepared.

With a 60-foot by 60-foot face, the clock is the largest in the United States and twice as large as the face of London's Big Ben.
