Two glowing, shadowy apparitions have been seen standing near the base of the tower on stormy nights. The ghost of a lady in a white dress has been seen on the boulevard directly adjacent to the tower. A black mist has been around the tower, and chases away visitors.

I have been to the Patterson tower. I once threw a rock on the top, and as I was walking away, it hit me in the back.
needless to say maybe someone in the building DID throw it at you
never knew it was called pattersons tower. we always called it frankensteins castle or the witches tower. I used to go there after work at 11:30pm. at that time(1981), you could climb through the bottom window and go to the top. I spent many hours there sometimes with a group of friends. Drinking and all that. Never saw anything strange even when alone late at night. Story is they closed it around 1977 after a couple got struck by lightning. Now vandals have broken the floor and the city has effectively sealed all openings so even if you found a way to the top there is only about a foot around the top to walk inside. Best to see it by drone.
