If it's the one on Eastgate, maybe it's because they think it's a) a nice bit of Victoriana or b) a nice bit of engineering/design or c) well-known for either or both reasons.
Or maybe they think it's just arresting/pretty/on the site of the Roman east gate/on the cover of some guidebook somewhere so is thought to represent Chester. Personal taste is infinitely variable; just as well, or the world would be hugely boring.
