Problems

There are a number of problems with your scenario.
1) As you pointed out, lots of people already live in the Hancock building, and I doubt any of them would take you as leader. Try telling Oprah that you're calling the shots now, and she'll just have her minions throw you to the zombies.
2) Going along with #1, the building would probably be compromised, security-wise, from the get go. There would be zombies all over the place.
3) Power plants would go down in a number of days without anyone manning them in a Zombie Crisis. There would be no electricity for the luxeries.
4) Hancock is a very prominant building- it would attract LOTS of zombies.
If I were you, I'd learn how to sail a sailboat. Your best bet in Chicago would be to try to sail north- probably to an Island near (but not too near) to the Michigan Upper Peninsula.

Okay, as to point one, trust me, I'm the leader. Most of the people living in the Hancock now are old geisers anyway who wear suits from Burberrys... please, I can handle them. Oprah lives in Lake Point Towers, she'd never make it out of that place alive.
As to point two, obvioulsy any place that is already compromised is not going to be any good. I have some faith in the new security system there. I think at the first sign of trouble access to the upper floors is cut off anyway. If is already infest though, you're right, it's not worth it to try and stake out a space at the top.
Point three is a good one... that would certainly make it less luxurious, you would still have the views though and the nice decor... really, if the apocolypse is coming do you want to be huddled in some windowless basement somewhere? I say, if you're going to face death do it in style : )
As to point four, true, it would attract alot of zombies... the key is to securing the upper portion because there's no way they're scaling the building.
I just don't see me sailing to the U. P. First of all, crossing Lake Michigan in a sailboat, even a large one can be seriously treacherous. Second of all, I'm not so big on the U.P. Have you met anyone from there? I think it's possible that zombies have actually already been there. I like the island idea though... I'm thinking more like St. Croix though...
