Well, sort of…

The intimidating black skyscraper that dominates the Chicago skyline, and can be seen on the cover of Visibility, changed its name today from the Sears Tower to Willis Tower (read more), after a London-based firm purchased naming rights to the landmark structure. It’s sudden renaming has turned more than a few heads. What do you think of the new name? Will this building ever be known as anything other than the Sears Tower?

Since its completion in 1974, the tower has been the tallest building in the United States and is one of the tallest in the world! Can you name any of the buildings that are taller? Be careful, there is some controversy!
