Towers!

Hello!
OK so have you guys heard of the Hancock or Sears tower?
Well these are two of the most famous buildings in Chicago.
They are also the tallest buildings in Chicago.
You can tell the difference not only by height but by shape.
The Sears tower ( now known as Big Willy or the Willis Tower because some meany British insurance company bought it! BooHoo!) has all these different ledges that kinda look like stairs that go up the building and make this funny looking shape.
The Hancock Tower ( smaller then the Sears because Sears is the second tallest building in the world.) Is just a plain old rectangle going straight up but its still a marvel to wonder at!
So there you go now when someone asks for a difference you'll be the one to answer!
Peace
