I took this photo a few weeks ago. I think it is on 12th or 13th. I just can't remember where this was and I'd like to find out as much info about the building as possible. Thanks for your help!

checkout Phillyhistory.org

I did try there, but can't find anything Thanks though!

Thank you, Howard! Do you know if the building itself has a name, or where I can find some history?

Looking at my own photo (not online) of the building from 13th Street side, I don't see a building name there. I believe that the wonderful sign shown in your photo, and smaller signs also visible on the building, were all uncovered in the last year or so. I'm not sure where if anywhere there is more history.

Much of Center City probably looked like this, at one time, or at least the commercial buildings.

Thanks to you, Howard, for giving me the address. I was able to find the building on Google Maps. From the picture on Google Maps, it's now the Old Nelson Food Company.

Doing a quick search, I found that it was bought in 2004 by
M K H PROPERTY LLC (also reported as - MKH PROPERTY LLC AND OLD NELSO )
Maybe they can offer some help?

If anyone's interested in seeing the info I've been able to dig up on this building since finding out the address, you can see it on my Flickr site: http://www.flickr.com/photos/amys_pixels/2525481579/
