Personally I think 155 N Wacker is a very good fit for that location. It's a straight forward central business district highrise. Sure it's mediocre, but when you're going for uber density, you can't have every single building screaming "Hey, look at ME!!" It's too busy.
It'll do it's job, which is to thicken the skyline background while everyone's looking up at Trump, Waterview and the Spire.
That's not to say that this building couldn't be a standout type, or even shouldn't be, but that the skyline needs both standouts and background buildings.
My main complaint is with that empty executive lobby. There really should be retail there.
