Officially, yes. Unofficially? It will probably take at least three generations before the people of Chicago stop calling it "Sears".

What side of town is the Willis Tower formerly called Sears Tower on?

The Sears Tower is downtown. Because of it's massive size, several different intersections may be given for it's exact location, depending on who you ask. It is between Jackson and Adams going north-south and between Wacker and Franklin going east-west. That means this building is located at approximately 300 South and 300 West. This is a bit south and west of the numerical center of the city (surprisingly, located at 0 x 0 or State St. and Madison Ave.). 400 is the equivalent of one half of a mile, so it is an easy walk from all the hotels downtown and the Mag Mile (or Michigan Ave.).


Why would you weigh a little less in the lobby of the Sears Tower than in your home?

I am from the UK so I'm going to assume a) The Sears Tower is a high skyscraper b) The lobby is on the ground floor You would weigh slightly less because the mass of the entire Sears Tower would be directly above you. All mass (including the Sears Tower) has a gravitational pull The Sears Tower would exert a gravitational pull directly upwards which would reduce your weight. However, the effect would be very very small - not measurable by ordinary scales - and you certainly wouldn't be able to feel it.

What are the 3 tallest buildings in Chicago?

One of Chicago�s famous buildings is the Auditorium Building. � Designed by the famous architects/engineer: Dankmar Adler and Louis Sullivan with a staff that included the young Frank Lloyd Wright. � The building was originally designed as a luxurious hotel and opera house/theatre. � Louis Sullivan designed its decoration and is considered to be one of the creators of Art Nouveau. � Dankmar Adler is considered to be one of the great engineers of the 19th century. He also designed the theater�s acoustics; so perfect that every word on its stage could be easily heard in the top gallery six stories up and a half block away. � Frank Lloyd Wright called the theatre �the greatest room for music and opera in the world.� Enrico Caruso sang there; Richard Strauss, Sergei Prokofiev, and Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov all conducted there. � It was the first new building in the world to be electrically lit and the first to be air conditioned via forced air directed over water and blocks of ice. In 1887, President Grover Cleveland laid the cornerstone and in 1889, President Benjamin Harrison dedicated the Auditorium. also the autorium theatere bulding was going to be torn down at one point, but it is built so strongly that it would cost more to tear it down then to buldi the bulding that was going to be built there. Architecture is to Chicago as Renaissance Painting is to Florence. Chicago is a veritable living museum of architecture. The Chicago Architecture foundation conducts hundreds of tours to remarkable buildings, even has an excellent river tour. Some of the styles represented are the Chicago School, International Style, Art Deco, Post Modern and Deconstructionist. The steel-girder skyscraper was invented in Chicago. Some of its most famous buildings are: Willis Tower (Sears Tower), The Prudential Building, The Aon Building, The Stone Container Building, Wrigley Field, Tribune Tower, The Rookery, The Santa Fe Building, The Art Institute, the Field Museum, The Wrigley Building, The John Hancock Building, Water Tower Place, The Pritzker Pavilion, and others too numerous to mention. There are very few buildings in the Chicago Loop that are without architectural significance. Check out the AIA Guide to Chicago (American Institute of Architects) which will give you details on almost any building in the city.
