Large black pyramidal tower of 343.5 m high with a 360° panorama ideal for an early morning or late evening visit.

This is a must see in Chicago! Here you'll find one of the most fascinating views of Chicago you can get. This tall black pyramidal tower, with its cross-shaped metal structure rising into the sky north of Gold Coast, opened in 1969 and is 343.5 meters high (excluding antennas). Propel yourself to the 94th floor in 40 seconds. A 360-degree panorama plunging into the bowels of the surrounding avenues and stretching as far as the eye can see into the inhabited plains of Illinois awaits you... You can walk on the Skywalk - Chicago's highest balcony, open to the south over the downtown skyscrapers, where you can feel the heat of summer or the bite of the winter wind. In May 2014, the Tilt ! tilted glass window opened, tilting visitors up into the void. It's truly impressive and a must do! But avoid if you are afraid of heights...

The best times to visit are early in the morning, between 9 and 11 am, or late in the evening, at sunset, when the light comes through the tower and casts the shadow of the Chicago skyline into the dark waters of Lake Michigan. Inside, everything has been studied to improve the comfort of the visitors and very design wooden benches have even been installed to admire the view without having to stand; some benches are even equipped with plugs to recharge your smartphone. There is also a bar on site, and what could be more magical than contemplating the skyline with a little cup in hand?

A faire pour le coucher du soleil qui est magnifique. J'y suis restée près de 4h à contempler le lac, le soleil couchant et la pleine lune montante. Je ne trouve pas que les vitres penchées (Tilt) valent le surplus de prix demandé. Fait sympa si vous n'êtes pas arachnophobe : on trouve plein d'araignées sur les fenêtres, à l'extérieur évidemment. Quand j'ai demandé pourquoi, on m'a répondu qu'elles devaient bien s'y sentir.

A 10h du matin, il y avait peu de monde et la lumière était bonne; cette tour offre un beau panorama sur toute la ville, à faire sans hésiter. Dommage que les écrans interactifs ne soient pas plus intéressants pour mieux appréhender ce que que l'on voit.

Superbe vue de là-haut. J'y suis montée en fin de journée et c'était magique...je vous recommande d'y aller. On a une belle vue de la ville et l'impression de liberté c'est sensationnel surtout lors du coucher de soleil ;)
