View some of the great 3D models of buildings, structures, sometimes almost entire cities present in the Google Earth 3D layer. This is a series of tracks designed to give you a tour in areas with many or particularly interesting models. Just mark the track of your choice and click on the 'play track' icon. Time has been spent to give you an easy and smooth view of great 3D buildings and struct...
Solothurn 1830 shows the city of Solothurn, Switzerland around 1830. The model is based on a real historic 3D cardboard model scale 1:500 in the museum "Blumenstein" in Solothurn. The historic cardboard model has been scanned with modern technology scanners. A documentary by Swiss television (in german) explains the making of.
The city of Marvao, Portugal has just had their 3D models added to the default layer, and they are incredible. Use this placemark to fly over there, then turn on 3D buildings in the layers section. Wow!

ComputaMaps has produced a 3d model of Downtown Vancouver:
The model contains almost 5000 objects, including several landmark buildings (textured using the new GE 4 features), such as:
The Science World building - a 155 foot tall geodesic dome!
One Wall Centre - voted the world's best new skyscraper in 2001
Morris Wosk Centre - 4 story glass atrium, the GeoWeb confer...
i put together lots of buildings in adelaide in one folder, most of them were made by howie from the sketchup 3d warehouse. he made them with great detail. and some were made by me.
These models are specifically for the new free Google Earth 4 (beta) and utilize texture mapping to add a great deal of realism to the scene. Texture maps are photos applied to 3D models so you can add great detail without slowing down the 3D rendering in the application. Done right, the models blend in with the surrounding aerial photography and look excellent viewed at all angles.
This is Chiflucka quarter, in Lom, Bulgaria, in 3D. It is an exact copy of the real neighbourhood, at this exact location, although the scale of the buildings is about 1 m. larger than they actually are.
I used SketchUp 5 and it took me less than 6 hours to do it.
the cathedral of Bamberg is one of many in 3d created buildings and part of a comprehensive google earth based city information system, some other buildings follow
