For over 40 years, the name Sears invoked an image of a tall black tower in Chicago’s skyline. Although still commonly referred to as the Sears Tower, London-based insurance broker Willis Group Holdings, Ltd. obtained the naming rights to the building on July 16th 2009. Sears’ legacy as one of Chicago’s mail-order giants, however, goes back further than the construction of the Sears Tower in 1974. | Chicago Architecture Center

Davy on Instagram: "I explore the Sears tower in Boyle heights, Los Angeles. After escaping security and getting inside the structure, we show you-the high level interior including the roof top of the Sears tower. I also talk about the properties history, which includes “Oscar de la Hoya”. The 1.8 million square foot complex, considered one of the iconic landmarks of LA’s Eastside, has remained vacant for years. #boyleheights #searstower #urbex #youtube #history"

Chicagoans refuse to call the Sears Tower by its “real” name, and there’s a reason for that 🏙️ Built in 1973, named after a Chicago company, and once the tallest building in the world. When the naming rights were sold in 2009, locals weren’t having it. 15 years later, most still aren’t. It’s more than a building. It’s part of Chicago’s identity. 😤 Be honest… are you calling it the Sears Tower or the Willis Tower? 👇 #ChicagoHistory #ChicagoLife #SearsTower #ChicagoCulture #WillyTower
