I'm not sure if you mean "benchmark" as vertical control, or if you mean the horizontal control mark and then the tower is basically over it, to translate it up along the plumb line. So the control point is man_made=survey_point. Then there is a tower which is physcially notable regardless, and the tourist bit. OSM's representation does not really admit multiple primary tags on objects, except that sometimes they dno't conflict. I'd put in man_made=survey_point as a node for the thing on the ground, some survey_point:geodetic_tower=yes subtag on that (to inform those who care about the survey aspect of that), maybe some kind of height tag, and then draw a way around the tower and tag that as man_mde=tower and/or tourism. I don't think we should try to drag towerness and being an attraction into the survey_point namespace; it seems easy enough to dneote multiple properties separately.
