Quick article from 2013 sums it up quite well...

"The futuristic Funnelator
is the prototype and the first of (hopefully) many to pop up as part of CentreVenture’s plan for downtown’s sports, hospitality, and entertainment district (SHED)."
"“This one was designed and built to be the first one, to see how it works, and to test the capabilities of the LED screen.
Until we run this one for awhile we’re not going to be building dozens of them in the immediate future.”
