Why Boathouse Row will go dark for about 8 months
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- There is a big change coming to iconic Boathouse Row. All of its lights will go dark beginning March 20 for roughly eight months, but why?
They're going to be upgraded.
The existing lighting system will be replaced due to on-going maintenance issues.
Once completed, the system will have 6,400 individual LED lights with 16 million color combinations.
The price tag is $2.1 million.
