360 Chicago Observation Deck, Observation deck in Magnificent Mile, Chicago, United States.
The 360 Chicago Observation Deck sits on the 94th floor of 875 North Michigan Avenue in the heart of Magnificent Mile and offers sweeping views of Lake Michigan and the city skyline. The viewing platform is complemented by various interactive zones and art-related exhibitions.
The observation deck opened in 1969 as part of the John Hancock Center, then one of the world's tallest buildings. The structure shaped Chicago's modern development and set architectural standards for high-rises in America.
The '3 of 77' exhibit features work by local artists presenting Chicago's neighborhoods through interactive displays and multimedia installations. This gives visitors a direct sense of the city's diversity through creative interpretation.
Visitors do best coming during daytime or early evening for the clearest views of the city and lake. The facility is easily reached from Magnificent Mile and offers accommodations for all mobility levels.
The TILT experience uses a mechanical system that extends visitors outward in a glass enclosure at an angle over Michigan Avenue and above street level. This sensation of hovering creates an unusual viewing angle of the city below.
