One of the country's tallest buildings — The ground and lower levels house some restaurants and shops and at the top of the building is the Skydeck. The vast majority of its 110 stories are offices for numerous professional firms and corporations but not Sears Roebuck and Company. The department store giant fled the city for the suburbs in the early 1990s. Still, the tower is a city unto itself, containing 43,000 miles of telephone cable, 2,000 miles of electrical wire, 25,000 miles of plumbing and enough concrete to build an eight-lane highway five miles long. The Sears Tower even has its own zip code.
