Many people on this forum (including me) agree that in certain areas of DTLA, midrises are the way to go. Skyscrapers are nice but if you were to put apartment/condo complexes on the parking lots in South Park that range from the 7-15 story range, that would create a more dense downtown than erecting nothing but skyscrapers.
And again: Palmer needs to realize that even though his Tuscans are successful, their designs are not. DTLA needs more of this:
