from NPR/All Things Considered
High atop Chicago’s soaring Sears Tower, a new attraction opened Thursday to the public. It’s called the Ledge, and it’s intended to give visitors never-before-seen views of the city.
It is not, however, for the faint of heart.
The glass box, on the 103rd floor, juts out just over four feet away from the building and it allows visitor to stare more than 1,300 feet straight below them.
Susie An reports for Chicago Public Radio.
