Which high-rises in downtown Los Angeles can you easily get to the top of (or pretty high up in)?
As a Los Angeles resident/serious enthusiast, I'm always looking for, quite literally, new angles from which to view the city. Living close to downtown and seeing all those skyscrapers right there outside my window makes me wonder which ones you can go high up in (and then look out of) without paying or getting too much security hassle. Any relevant experience, MeFites?

The Ritz-Carlton has a bar & lounge on the 24th floor.

Definitely the Westin-Bonaventure. The lobby feels like some utopian vision of the future from 1978. Park on the street near Third and Hope, and consider springing for one of the bar's cheeseball souvenir mugs. (You haven't lived until you've had a margarita from a cup shaped like California.)

Park on the street or take public transportation, because their lot is absurdly expensive.
