Pakistan Employees Cooperative Housing Society (PECHS), Block 2 (biggest block of PECHS) is a neighborhood in Karachi East district of Karachi, Pakistan. It was founded by Mehmood Ahmad Nizami in 1950, three years after Pakistan was founded by Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah. Nizami lived in the same society and also created the first house in PECHS where some of his descendants now live. It is considered a historical site. PECHS was previously administered as part of Jamshed Town,[1] which was disbanded in 2011.
