The Markham Building is a building in Johannesburg, South Africa, which when completed in 1897 was the tallest building in the city. The six story building has a clock tower housing a large clock imported from Scotland with four faces North, South, East and West. Known as Markham's Folly, because it stood out clearly in the centre of Johannesburg. In the clock tower there was an artist studio. The building was saved from demolition in 1978

  • 馬克姆大廈(南非語:Markham-gebou,英語:Markham Building)是一座位於南非約翰內斯堡的建築,於1897年建成時是該市最高的建築。這座六層高的建築有一座鐘樓,裡面裝有一個從蘇格蘭進口的大鐘,有東、南、西、北四個面。該鐘樓稱為「馬克姆的愚蠢」,因為其在約翰內斯堡中心區內顯而易見。在鐘樓裡有一個藝術家工作室。在1978年,該建築被拆除。 (zh)
