Good lord that’s dumb and likely cost a huge amount of money.
“is a new kind of public landmark: engaging and interactive, meant to be climbed and explored.” nope, it’s just stairs. You’re just walking up and down different stairs - that’s about it.

Something much nicer and functional could’ve been put there. Like a vertical park or something else innovative.

Or even levels with something in the middle. Nope, stairs around the perimeter.
