They will be tall and "modern" enough to stand out. Cities like Paris and London have lots of beautiful, old architecture. And yet they are able to put up modern buildings. At some point, the future becomes the present, and you have to live in the present no matter how much you cling to the past. That applies to cities as much as it applies to people. The area won't become overrun with tall buidings because zoning simply does not allow it. In fact, the vast majority of New York City is "downzoned", even for buildings as high as 10 stories.
