Chicago, IL (Cook County)
The Willis Tower (formerly and informally: Sears Tower, its name until 2009) is a 108-story, 1,450-foot (442.1 m) skyscraper in Chicago. The tower has 108 stories as counted by standard methods, though the building's owners count the main roof as 109 and the mechanical penthouse roof as 110. At completion in 1974, it surpassed the World Trade Center in New York City to become the tallest building in the world, a title that it held for nearly 25 years; it was also the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere for 41 years, until the new One World Trade Center surpassed it in 2013.
Willis Tower is considered a seminal achievement for engineer Fazlur Rahman Khan. It is currently the third-tallest building in the United States and the Western hemisphere – and the 23rd-tallest in the world. Each year, more than one million people visit its observation deck, the highest in the United States, making it one of Chicago's most popular tourist destinations. The structure was renamed in 2009 by the Willis Group as a term of its lease.
In 1969, Sears, Roebuck & Co. was the largest retailer in the world, with about 350,000 employees. Sears executives decided to consolidate the thousands of employees in offices distributed throughout the Chicago area into one building on the western edge of Chicago's Loop. (1)

Here are my three editions of the Better Homes Cook Book. My cat decided to get into the act. She's not allowed on the counter, but she doesn't seem to care.

Bronze statue, 1973
Cook’s Cottage, Fitzroy Gardens (Melway ref. 2G, B4)
Marc Clark was born in London in 1923 and came to Australia in 1962. For the decade to 1973 he was the drawing and sculpture master at Melbourne’s National Gallery Art School, at which time his own practice shifted from figurative painting to sculpture.
In 1973, he was commissioned to create this life-size bronze statue of Captain James Cook for the opening of the Endeavour Hills housing estate. It was later donated to the City of Melbourne for display near Cook’s Cottage, in Fitzroy Gardens. It was installed in July 1997.
