360° Observation Platform Chicago: Entrance

They call it the windy city, but from the 94th floor of the downtown John Hancock Center building you won't just see arching trees. 360 Chicago gives you incredible views of the city, Lake Michigan and the four nearby states. And unlike the Willis Tower, here you'll have room to move around and enjoy the views. How can a 100-story building be kept secret? It's hard to say, but 360 Chicago is the best surprise in Chicago. If you secure tickets to 360 Chicago before your visit, you can enjoy hassle-free entry and get right into the tranquil atmosphere as you ride one of the fastest elevators in the U.S. up to a 17,000-square-foot (1600m2) observation deck. From the top, 360° of mesmerizing scenery stretches before you. Take in the four surrounding states (Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana and Illinois), the yellow stripes of cabs, the blue glow of Lake Michigan, and even the birds soaring over the Magnificent Mile.
