Good. After that Nakatomi rescue, I always thought Bruce Willis deserved a tower named after him.

You can call a sow a ballerina but it doesn’t mean she can dance.

It’s the Sears Tower. It always will be.

Well deserved indeed, especially after all the beatings he has taken and targets he has sent to DirtNapLand, a real tribute to Chicago’s darker side..

Who could have predicted when they built that tower that Sears would fall as far and fast as they did.

The Ledge is part of Skydeck Chicago on the 103rd floor of the Sears Tower.

Sears Tower? Where's that?

Oh you mean the WILLIS tower!

I’m old enough to remember when Sears and Roe started they didn’t have a buck to their name. Stolen from REDD FOXX, may he rest in peace!

It's about time they honored the late Wesley Willis in Chicago. He was a legend!
