I recall an interview where they mentioned they had to block it off after that one mission as part of their licensing agreement. The people responsible for licensing out the space needle likeness were apparently "worried" the game would encourage people to climb around at the top of the space needle.
I'm surprised people on here didn't know that licensing buildings is very common in media. Just like a persons likeness you have to license buildings too. I mean if you had a nice tower in NYC you'd want all control over where it appears in and how it's used. Imagine someone using your tower and blowing it up as part of a game.
seems to be only for video games though. when filming movies it's not always as much of an issue.
