The BBC ran a show called "Seven Wonders of the Industrial World" which have The Bell Rock; The Great Eastern; Bazalgettes London Sewers; The Transcontinental Railway; The Brooklyn Bridge; The Panama Canal and The Hoover Dam. http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/society_culture/industrialisation/seven_wonders_01.shtml although I guess the Palm Islands being built in Dubai will surely push themselves into this exclusive list Feb 11 06, 4:04 PM
