Additional Information
Introduction
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.

The Willis Building (Willis Tower) is a skyscraper located in Chicago, Illinois, USA. It was built in 1974, and the Hills Building (now Willis Building) in Chicago was the world's tallest building from 1974 to 1998. But in recent decades, tall buildings have broken records.
The best place to see the Chicago panorama was the Sears Tower, the world's first tube-beamed concrete super-storied building, at school, which has a very important impact on the skyscraper.
The Willis Building, a 110-story, 442-meter-high skyscraper in Chicago, was completed in 1973 and surpassed New York City's World Trade Center as the tallest building in the world, a name that has lasted nearly 25 years. More than a million people visit it every year, and it is one of Chicago's most popular tourist attractions.
The Willis Tower is a landmark in Chicago and a great place to enjoy the city view of Chicago, both white and in the evening I think it is a good choice and a popular local attraction
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.
103 floors above ground level, you'll be sorry if you didn't make your way here. One of the highest observation deck in the US. Once you're on top, you can stay on top for as long as you like to get that picture perfect moment. Purchase your tickets in advance. There is no discount on pricing.
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!
A great building with amazing views of Chicago! Would definitely go back and take more amazing photos!
