Wills Tower FAQs

It's hard to miss Willis Tower amidst the Chicago skyline. Located along the beautiful Chicago River that runs directly through the heart of the city, Willis Tower is characterized by its dark, sleek exterior and geometric design.

About: Willis Tower

It used to be the Sears Tower, but in 2009, London-based insurance broker Willis Group Holdings acquired the naming rights. No matter what you call it (everybody still refers to it as Sears Tower), it's an architectural icon. When it was built in 1973 it was the tallest building in the world. It's now 14th-tallest, but offers unrivaled views of the Windy City, and sees more than a million visitors each year.
