John Hancock Center, Chicago, IL

I got this postcard from my godmother in the States.  After going to Hawaii, she and her family visited Illinois.  

The text on the postcard reads, "The sleek black lines on the John Hancock Center dominates Michigan Ave. and the Chicago skyline."

Completed in 1970, the John Hancock Center is home to large spiders and the observatory with the only open-air viewing deck in Chicago.  Read more about the building in its website here.

The building has 1632 steps from the lobby to the observatory in the 94th floor

My godmother sent this postcard when they got home to California.  It came with this stamp:

America's icon for freedom and independence, the Liberty Bell, is on America's first Forever stamp
