Landmarks from any where…
The Eiffel Tower…324 metres high.
The Tower in which Big Ben (the Bell)
resides is 96 metres high.
According too Google the
Geelong Football Club ground
is 5.1 kilometres as the crow flies.
Without the light towers, which are 73 metres high,
the ground would be difficult to spot
even from this vantage point.

Although I don’t have a photo,
this morrning Melbourne was laying claim to
having the tallest Southern hemisphere building.
At 388 metres high, the 108 storey
hotel and apartment building
is located in Melbourne’s
Southbank area.
I get tickled with man always do go one higher or bigger that the last monument or building.

A few years ago I heard a story of two towers being built. One builder hid the spire until the very last thing and claimed tallest building. The bloke speaking yesterday that another building is taller ‘if you count the spire. But we have the tallest floored/occupied building...’ Appears there will be new categories of ‘tall’ created.
