Requires special installation, please read installation tab.

This is a full-scale model of the Willis (formerly the Sears) Tower in Chicago Illinois. The building is 108 floors high, but still is at the actual limit of 15 stories, with three of them being "playable". The only parts that I tried to recreate strictly from real life is the exterior and the sky deck, I took creative liberties in the interior. There is an H&M Fashion department store, a movie theater, arcade and a Mc Donald's on the ground floor lobby as well as a coffee shop on the 103rd sky deck level. These stores add a lot of NPCs (seven of them) to the lot, so it could run slow on older systems. If that is the case, you might consider removing a store. BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS BUILDING: If you don't already have Numenor's Custom Walls Repository & Index installed in your game, you will need download and install that, there are download links provided. Make sure you read the install instructions tab!!! Also, a good camera hack with a wide zooming range is strongly recommended and a link is provided too.

Lot Size: 5x6
