The inspiration for Willis Tower’s glass-floor observation box came from the hundreds of forehead prints visitors left behind on Skydeck windows every week.

Opened in 1974, the Skydeck attracts more than 1.7 million visitors annually who enjoy views of up to 50 miles and four states. The Ledge brings an exhilarating new experience to Willis tower. Skydeck is also open for special events-and on the way up to the top, you can explore our completely unique, one-of-a-kind museum filled with interesting Chicago facts.
