About PECO Building
The PECO Building is an office highrise in Center City Philadelphia. The building gets its name from PECO (Philadelphia Electric Company), one of the companies that merged to form Exelon Corporation. The building lies adjacent to the Schuylkill River and has the address of 2301 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103. The PECO Building is notable for its electronic display, which displays the time, temperature, news, and a variety of other community messages in amber-colored scrolling text around the top of the building. At midnight on January 1, 2009 the lights were shut down and replaced with a more energy efficient and more colorful LED-based system which went live on July 4, 2009.
