Sears Tower is the tallest sky scraper in the United States of America. If the Twin Towers were still standing they would be a close second, but they’re not so it doesn’t even matter. too bad sucka. The Sears Tower was the tallest sky skraper in the world until Japan decided to build something taller. Ther’s nothing larger in the U.S.A except for Texas(and Alaska doesn’t count ). BOOYAH!!! Chi town biach. Peace Luv and Nappiness! Big ups to #1
The world trade center twin towers will always look better than the sears tower in chicago. Chicago be trying to copy new york. having tall buildings and having a subway line that is on top of the street. Culeros hijo de la gran putas.
by deffinition, a subway above the streets is a rail way… (sub meaning under)
and the burj kalif in dubai is taller than all of these
You are very naive and ignorant. Chicago invented the Skyscraper. You need to study your history. The idea came from the need for space. Downtown Chicago was prime real estate and was very expensive. Investors began building up instead of out. This gave birth to what we now call Skyscrapers! It, along with most things originated in the Windy City, Chi-town!!
Chicago iz da best city out there New york maybe u should take sum pointers from us and you’ll become a better city…..haha and u guyz had two towerrz and they werent tall enough lol…….but every one knowz CHICAGO iz da best and were better at sportz….. Chicago #1 woot woot……
