John Hancock Center

By Traveller On October 15, 2008 Under Chicago

100 stories, rising 1,127 feet skyward, have earned the John Hancock Building, built in 1870, the nickname “Big John”.

Visitors not suffering from vertigo can enjoy views of the city and Lake Michigan from the Skydeck on the 94th floor at the Hancock Observatory (http://www.hancock-observatory.com) or take the high-speed elevator up to the 95th floor, where “The 95th” is the highest restaurant in the city, with no less dizzying prices. The “Signature Lounge” (http://www.signatureroom.com), on the 96th floor, offers a much more affordable panoramic view, ideal for enjoying the illuminated skyline over an evening cocktail.
