Boathouse Row
Philadelphia, PA
Just in time for the city’s Fourth of July
celebration, Philadelphia’s historic Boathouse Row received a high-tech lighting
makeover in June 2005. Made possible by Color Kinetics’ intelligent solid-state
lighting technology, the new lighting system replaced a 30-year-old incandescent
system that required frequent and costly maintenance. By installing the
LED-based system, the Fairmount Park Commission expects to save approximately
$57,000 in annual operating costs!
A popular Philadelphia landmark, Boathouse Row
comprises twelve boating clubs in ten, architecturally distinct buildings along
a half-mile stretch of the Schuylkill River. Prior to the relighting project,
the Fairmount Park Commission was spending more than $50,000 per year on bulb
replacement and $8,000 per year on energy costs.
