in Latin and Central America, panama city is the most emblematic of the 21st century for me in terms of its urban sprawl, futuristic vision neck break (or chaos - whichever you prefer).

So you would choose a city for its importance only in 13 years ? "new 7 wonders" its about citys with more history than 13 years i think. Just saying, don't take it bad

Melbourne? Really? Surprised to see that. What are your reasons, out of curiosity?

I guess for me it'd be these modern cities.

Chicago: Gave rise to the skyscraper and completely rebuilt a city in a way that would revolutionise the way we live.

Montreal: North America's original 'sin city' with beautiful streets.

New Orleans: A prototype for mass multiculturalism that created some of the sounds of the 20th century.

Hong Kong: where China blossomed and proved what it could do (without much resources)

Sydney: A British penal colony became one of the world's most liveable cities with 1/3 of households speaking a language other than English. It shook off the horrors of British food and taught an uneasy Australia that it did have a few things to show off.

Tokyo: The amount of times this city has been rebuilt it mind boggling. It keeps coming back bigger and better

Buenos Aires: Eat, drink, dance. BA knows how to live.
