It's the rest of downtown that should be mostly mid-rise as that would best fit with the existing structure.
I would hope that most residential construction from the 110 fwy to Grand from Pico to 1st would be >15 stories. The rest can be mostly mid-rise with high rises mixed in.

I think the high rises should be on all of those lots around LA Live (Metropolis, Francisco Street). Anything east of Fig I'd love to see a smattering of buildings in the 300-450 foot range but also large condo complexes as well.
These are the Insignia Towers in Seattle. This is the type of high rise development that I would love to see in South Park.
