The two towers are of differing heights, with the south tower rising to 30 stories and the north tower to 21 stories. On the south tower is a clock with faces pointing in all directions. Each face is 19 feet 7 inches (5.97 m) in diameter. The building is clad in glazed terra-cotta, which provides its gleaming white façade. On occasion, the entire building is hand washed to preserve the terra cotta. At night, the building is brightly lit with floodlights.

One of the most beautiful spots in Chicago, where the recommended architecture boat tour begins. Even for me as an uneducated architect, the various buildings on the river are not only impressive, but also really interesting. Each with its own history.
