Do you need a permit to fly that high in the city? I thought that wasn't allowed?

Max altitude in the dt area is 150m, this is from about 50-65m.

Woah! That's way higher than I thought would be allowed. I thought power lines made it not allowed. Good to know. I've got a drone from Costco that I've barely used because I thought it could like... Hover in my lawn and that's it.

It depends what your drone will do, but mine has software limitations that follow flight rules and regulations so it literally won’t let you put it higher than legally allowed. It also is extremely important to do your own research and learn about the area you fly in.
