Grant Park doesn't get too many visitors,
Millennium Park is tucked in the corner and therefore this tower is less prominent in the view,
and everyone at MDP is probably more invested in MDP itself rather than this tower.
At the end of the day while this building has its quirks i would bet almost no one would look at Vista and call it ugly, or a failure of a building. I'm happy to have it in the skyline.
The building can be seen from all sides folks. Arguing which side is more important is about as useful as a concrete parachute.
