So many wonders, so little time. The St. Louis Arch is a remarkable achievement.

Dubai might have something, too.

QE2 sold as $100m floating Dubai hotel

 

In Dubai, the prospect of providing a new home for the QE2 was greeted with enthusiasm as the resort tries to establish itself as a"global tourist destination."

Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, chairman of the Government-owned Dubai World, the developers of the Palm Jumeirah, described the ship as"one of the wonders of the maritime world."

It would, he claimed, have a new home at"the newest wonder of the world."

 

But neither of these top a few molecules of DNA.

This unscientific internet / cellphone poll covered only architectural wonders, not the Wonders of God's Creation.

From the article:

"Weber said he was starting a new campaign Sunday to choose the new seven natural wonders of the world."

We'll just have to see if DNA is an available voting option  :-)

At least three have to be at least partially in America, being the Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls, and Redwood/Sequoia National Forests.
