PAETEC Holding Corp. is a nationwide telecommunications company founded and headquartered in Fairport, New York. They provide phone and Internet services to businesses of all sizes.

PAETEC recently acquired two additional companies: US LEC, based in Charlotte, NC, and McLeod USA, based in Cedar Rapids, IA. With some help from the state, they will be tearing down Midtown Plaza and surrounding buildings within the next year, and building a skyscraper of unknown height in its place. (Estimates from 28 to 35 stories have appeared in local publications.) The company's Chairman and CEO, Arunas Chesonis, is active as a philanthropist in the Rochester community, and recently partially sponsored the new athletic center at Monroe Community College.

2009-04-17 17:49:16   I'm in the camp that says they should just gut the old Midtown tower and update/reuse it. Given that PAETEC outwardly appears to be tanking I think it makes good business sense. But, then again, since when did good business sense ever triumph shiny monstrosities? —BatGuano

The PAETEC Tower was/is a planned skyscraper to be built where Midtown Plaza was. Nobody knows what happened to this plan, if anything, but its been about a year and a half since weve heard anything about the PAETEC Tower.—sub619
