To heck with the old crap. The wonders of the old world were living breathing parts of their era. As should the modern wonders be.
Your take on it only underlines my point that I could come up with so many small and large "wonders of the world", even when sticking to buildings/monuments.

The Saturn V on display. The VAB. Nuclear power plants with huge cooling towers. That beautiful new bridge in France. The Chrysler building (because its prrrrrrrrrrretty!!). etcetcetc.
