So, You Wanna See Chicago From Above?
Let’s talk about 360 Chicago. Not the dance move, but the observation deck. You know, that place where you can feel like a bird, but without the whole pooping everywhere thing.
Where on Earth is it?
You might be thinking, “Great, a view from the top, but where exactly is this magical place?” Well, buckle up, buttercup, because it’s in the heart of the Windy City itself - Chicago! More specifically, it's on the 94th floor of the John Hancock Building. That's right, you're going to be higher than a kite (but hopefully not as windy).
Is it Worth the Hype?
Short answer: Absolutely. Long answer: Absolutely, with a side of wow. Imagine being 1,000 feet above the ground, with panoramic views of Lake Michigan, the Magnificent Mile, and the entire Chicago skyline. It’s like a real-life Google Maps, but way cooler because you’re actually there. Plus, they have this thing called TILT where you can lean out over the city. It’s like a rollercoaster, but without the stomach-churning drops.
