The work is expected to take six to eight weeks.
A group had attempted to raise the money, at least $1.5 million, needed to clean up and restore the structure, a NW Natural spokeswoman told Portland Architecture's Brian Libby. It came up well short.

NW Natural donated the clock that had sat on top of the tower to Oregon State University, which resited on top of its Corvallis campus's Benton Hall.
