29 stories high (currently the largest project of it's kind) using a 20x23 led "pixel display". Everything was done using an existing led infrastructure that was a part of the building beforehand.

Hackaday had a similar post but none of them had the video on the Philadelphia building.

very handy to already have the LED infrastructure in the building :)

Maybe someone could jazz up there Christmas lights this year with this sort of thing!

There is already something like that which has been around for a long time.

There is a Christmas light show at the old John Wanamaker building in Philadelphia.
