Tell a potential visitor, in 20 words or fewer, how to get there by transit from Water Tower Place.
Well, transit from Water Tower Place is pretty suboptimal to get from most other places downtown by that measure. It is really easy to pick in almost any city random locales where it isn't the most convenient to use PT to get from location to another if one is looking not to connect them for the sake of an argument.

If say we were talking about getting to the OPO location/Holiday Inn lot from say O'Hare, Wicker Park, or Logan Square then it is pretty darn accessible via the Blue Line. It is also pretty darn close for any train riders using Union Station, bus riders using Greyhound, and those with cars from just about anywhere given that Jane Byrne is an 1/8 mile away.

The insinuation by you that it is in some sort of transit desert and not one of the most accessible locations, if not THE most, for all types of transit in the whole metro area is totally absurd.
