Christ the King Seminary in its finished form. St. Bonaventure did not own the land that the Seminary rests on. The townhouses, which would appear in the top right of the photo, and the garden apartments, which would be to the left, had not been constructed. According to the July 22, 1950 edition of the Olean Times Herald, the seminary included a 112 foot tower, topped by a 13 foot bronze cross shown below on the left. A clock seen on each side of the tower featured a map of the world on its front. It had a third hand that showed the world's "mass time" by pointing to the country holding mass at that hour. The picture on the right is a photograph of what the clock looks like today with the hands missing.
