to me..the best tower of the whole southern hemisphere.. i freakin' love that building.

Eureka Tower ??
For me that tower is too provocative. Id like it if it were a little bit more elegant.

Anyway I think that Australia has by far the best skylines in all the Southern hemisphere.
In South America, Buenos Aires tops the list IMO.

If you're trying to imply that I am biased, you're wrong.

I have not voted yet, and maybe I wont, because I think comparisons are kinda foolish when people starts to be mean with others, I rather go watch and enjoy great pictures of all our cities. So I don't get your point buddy, I'm not biased, period. It seems you have a problem with that, take it easy man.

It's kind of like a class or team picture with the tallest at the back but to be viewed from the the back, everyone is looking the other way.
Still the river views are some of the best in Australia, only really rivaled by Sydney.

....

I really love how Brisbane has come along in the last 20 years, won't be long til it has taller buildings than Perth.

Perth takes a nice picture. I assume you're joking about Brisbane sizes catching up to Perth?

Brisbane, Australia

New tower in Santiago de Chile

cheers!

The South American cities are pretty cool...love the mountainous backdrop of Santiago.
IMO a breathtaking natural background/setting always boosts the rating of a skyline for me.

1-Sydney
2-Melbourne
3-Buenos Aires
4-Gold Coast

They don´t want pics of Buenos Aires, they think that post more than one pic after you´ve already voted is "SPAM"

Mistral1 · May 12th, 2010, 01:32 AM

My bet:

1.- Sydney
2.- Melbourne
3.- Buenos Aires (Puerto Madero)
4.- Río de Janeiro
5.- Santiago de Chile
