My Workplace
I took this happy-snap of the building where I work as I was leaving today.
I've always loved this building, even before I moved to Chicago.
Many folks think that the John Hancock Building is the second-tallest building in Chicago since it's 100 stories, but it's not. The Aon Center (where I work) is only 80 stories , but it's actually nine feet taller.
The Hancock, at 100 stories, is comprised of condos, whereas the Aon Center is comprised of office space. The top of the Aon Center (where I work) is nine feet taller the top of the Hancock.
A lot of people in Chicago don't know that.
They think that since the Sears Tower has 110 stories, the Hancock has a hundred stories, then since the Aon Center has only 80 stories, that it's the third tallest building in Chicago.
That is SOooo not true!
MY office building is the SECOND tallest in Chicago.
NOT the third!
The top of the Sears Tower is 1450 ft
The top of the Aon Center is 1136 ft.
The top of the Hancock is 1127 ft.

Thanks for clarifying. I'm still confused. But thanks for clarifying.
