BrickEconomy Expert Review
“The John Hancock Center set, designed by Adam Reed Tucker, holds a pivotal place in LEGO's history as a precursor to the official LEGO Architecture series. Created in 2007 and limited to 1,250 sets, it was not only a BrickWorld event kit but also a sort of prototype for the later LEGO Architecture set 21001, showcasing the John Hancock Center. This early collaboration under the Brickstructures brand, coupled with its limited release, underscores its significance in the evolution of LEGO's architectural series.”
 

About Architecture Brickstructures

LEGO Brickstructures was a subtheme of Architecture that was released in 2008 and contained two of the very first sets created by Adam Reed Tucker, the Sears Tower and the John Hancock Center. Because Adam Reed Tucker was a Chicago architect the first models reflected his hometown inspiration. Both these original structures were re-released and slightly re-imaged in the Landmark Series subtheme.
