The Oldt Family Carillon will be located in the middle of South Central Park. The Carillon is being donated by Mr. Thomas Oldt as “a tangible means of expressing a lifetime’s worth of gratitude to a nurturing community and a way of honoring the memory” of the Oldt Family. The Carillon will provide a new feature to the Park. It will include bronze bells which were cast in the Netherlands and is one note shy of a 2-octave chromatic scale.

In addition to the Carillon itself, the project includes the installation of the instrument and the construction of a surrounding decorative wall, creating an elegant and inviting space for visitors.
