The willis tower

While growing up in San Jose, I didn’t see a lot of tall buildings; my hometown’s airport was right by downtown so towers couldn’t exceed a certain height. That’s why when I went to Chicago back in 2013, I was mesmerized by the sheer size of the Willis Tower. To my 13-year-old self, it looked like four separate towers put together and I was truly in awe of how I could see the reflection of the city on the structure. This still didn’t compare to how it looked at night; it looked like a continuation of the night sky with most of the building lights still on. When most people travel to the windy city, they look for quality food, the Bean, or a Cubs game… too many people don’t go to see the wonder that is the tallest skyscraper in America.
