Was there for the All Blacks match in November, fantastic city.

Although the Willis (formerly Sears) Tower is taller, all of the locals consistently told us that the view from the Hancock Building is better as it's closer to Lake Michigan and it was certainly a great view. Don't go to the very top where you have to pay, there is a bar one floor below the top which is free to enter and you can have a beer or two and enjoy the same view for the money you would have paid to go just one floor higher.
