Global Vote Opens to Name 7 Wonders of Future Cities
New7Wonders has launched worldwide public voting to select urban developments shaping tomorrow's cities, with a launch ceremony held in New Clark City, Philippines.
A global public vote to identify the seven most visionary urban developments in the world is now underway, with New7Wonders officially opening balloting at www.7wondersfc.com. The campaign was announced in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and formally launched with an "ignition" ceremony held in New Clark City, Philippines.
New Clark City, a large-scale planned urban development in the Philippines, served as the symbolic starting point for the initiative, underscoring its status as one of the candidate projects under consideration. The ceremony marked the transition from nomination to active public participation, inviting voters from every corner of the world to weigh in on which cities and developments best represent the future of human settlement.
