There are so many positives to this, it makes it worth it. This would have the same effect Millennium Park did, and I'm sure you'll see the same people who protested MP crying against it. It would be a selling point for every unit in the south loop and lakeshore east with all of the added recreational land.
It will be expensive as hell, but it would pay for itself in time. The marina, wind power, observation deck and a serious boost to tourism would all bring in revenue.
My only concern would be if I owned a boat. It looks like it would be tough to get in and out.
