That above rendering does look interesting, almost Spire like in shape.
Chicago is the economic hub of the midwest and midwesterners in my experience tend to put a high value on modesty and are unimpressed with and perhaps a little suspicious of anything flashy that can't be built with a few sets of hands like social status. I would guess that has to do with the prominence of factories, farming and Christianity in the region.
