Aug 30, 2017

360 CHICAGO, formerly the John Hancock Observatory, has always offered its guests a terrific vantage point to see and discover Chicago’s rich architectural history. Now, its offering a new exhibit that actually lets guests explore some of the city’s culturally unique neighborhoods

Discover nine distinct and exciting neighborhoods through the Chicago History Exhibit. Filled with unique multimedia, students can engage with the city’s bustling history and dynamic culture as they make their way toward one of the fastest elevator rides in North America. Each neighborhood is highlighted by an exclusive video tour, taking guests into the city streets to see the Chicago of today, as hosted by narrators from the famous Second City improv theater.

360 CHICAGO is also the home of TILT—Chicago’s highest thrill ride, which tilts guests over the city 1,000 feet above Michigan Avenue. A thrill for both the adventuresome and the inquisitive, TILT offers its own unique exhibit exploring its construction. Two large-scale panels describe and display the physics, weight and operation of this one-of-a-kind marvel.

360 CHICAGO is offering a special promotion for student groups through 2018. Groups that book their tour of this iconic observation deck for a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesay or Thursday by March 30, 2018, will TILT free during all of 2017 and 2018 (excluding June 1 thorugh August 31)!
