 Difficult to pick a single landmark for Melbourne - probably the most well known image is Flinders Street station

		| | It's not exactly a city ;), but here's my area's most-recognizable landmark: 
 
   (Half Dome, Yosemite National Park)

		| | The only full-scale "landmark" on the Cape, other than lighthosues and the bridges over the canal, is the Pilgrim Monument in Provincetown, the tallest free-standing masonry structure in America:

		| |   Orginially built for Expo '67 I think.  Feel free to correct me.  It's the Montreal Biosphere.  I would put one of Olympic Stadium but I don't have one.  Biosphere is currently a water research place/museum I believe

 Half Dome is certainly recognizable :-) Lucky you to live there. I used to teach in Yosemite in the summers, for a bit.
 
 I always thought of a landmark as being a man-made structure placed in the landscape, but I suppose that's a fairly limiting POV :-) Nice shot!

 Home, sweet home... I think I've seen that statue literally 1000 times. I lived on Point Loma growing up and for much of my adult life after myw anderigns were over.
