Willis vs SEARS


According to the Chicago Sun Times, the Sears tower is being renamed.
It will now be referred to as the Willis Tower. WHAAAA??? What you talkin' 'bout Willis?!
I for one don't want the iconic structure renamed! Willis, an insurance group out of Chicago, will occupy 3% of the office space and won over the naming rights.
Sorry Willis people, but I will be visiting the SEARS TOWER when I visit my beloved Chicago.
Here are some SEARS TOWER facts:

Rentable space: 3.8 million square feet

Percent vacancy: 15.8

Typical floor size: 34,373 square feet

Quoted rents: $14 to $21 per square foot

No. of tenants: More than 90
