Even the iconic engineering-challenged Falling(down)water only came in at #29. That was a lot higher than I would have ranked it, but I tended to derate architecture that crumbles in the decades immediately following completion. I was also glad to see bridges were included! But putting the Brooklyn Bridge below the World Trade Center? Ugh! But I guess the WTC earns a certain measure of pity points that are hard to counter.

Why do they feel the need to dumb it down? The best on the list are average, the inclusion of some, like the Vegas Hotel is tragic. As an architect I find the AIA's list rather insulting.
