I think the best attribute is that it will become the gateway for the millions of tourists who come to Chicago annually. First impressions count very highly when you first come into a city, and I think this will fit the bill nicely. It looks like it has potential to have a "wow" factor, if you get what I mean.

I like the idea of having that obelisk displaying current information, that is one of the first things people want when coming to town (especially the business traveler).
