About Willis Tower
Hate waiting for elevators? You might want to consider finding yourself a job inside the former headquarters of Sears, Roebuck, and Company; it has 103 of them so, chances are, there will always be one waiting for you. The skyscraper, formerly known as the Sears Tower (a name which is still commonly used), is actually nine square buildings bundled together; an engineering strategy to help the 110 storey structure resist Chicago’s infamously high winds. When it finished construction in 1974, it was the world’s tallest building at 1,451 feet. The 110 storey building lost that title to the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 1998. The Skydeck, on the 103rd floor, allows visitors the best view of the city and provides an interactive experience. Those with a strong constitution can even step out into one of several glass boxes that hang over the building’s ledge.

Its like all other high Rise Buildings, Nothing Special. There was a Queue to take Pictures in ledge (Glass Cubical) and only 60 sec are given if 3 or kess people in group and 90 Sec if 4 or more. Can be skipped if have already been to any other high Rise Observatory.
If you’ve got the guts to go into a cube of glass suspended 1200 some odd feet above the hard concrete of Chicago, you don’t have to prove your courage to me in any other way.
Amazing experience! The thrill of being on that ledge and looking down is great for overcoming heights! Make sure to capture plenty of pictures! They come out amazing!
Nice place to visit.
A great building with amazing views of Chicago! Would definitely go back and take more amazing photos!
Check the weather before coming here. If it's too cloudy you won't be able to see a thing just clouds.
Beautiful and interesting view!!!
Would have given it 3stars but where else can you get the view!?! Process to get up was easy enough, upstairs there was a broken wine glass sitting on a ledge, dirty wine glasses scattered around, and no flow just people milling about. View is great and there were some hard benches to rest upon.
Long line but worth the wait. There are spots to take pictures from every angle and the sky deck is worth the wait
One of the most popular paid attraction in Chicago! You have to go down the elevator and then take a special elevator which will take you up to the 94th floor is 60 Seconds. Get ready for your ears to pop!The view is absolutely gorgeous, but they were so many people here compared to the 360 Chicago! So if you want a photo with the building in Chicago I would recommend 360 Chicago. There are 4 Skydeck, which all have lines. If you're trying to get the sunset, the line will be at least an hour wait! You've been warned!
