Urban Africa (life, vs)

[chiatldal]

Ok since there's a cap on skyline threads in the City vs City forum. There's an incredible ignorance of African cities. We are largely interested in geography and urban development. Why not make a thread on the skylines and cityscapes of Africa? Please post photos, videos and discuss what ever related: development projects, historic areas, city life and etc..

Spent half a year in Ethiopia. Would love to see some pictures of Addis Ababa. Good pics by the way.

Any pictures of Accra Ghana, and Dakar, Senegal's skyline?

Love the pictures. I would like to see a better picture of Nairobi, that one is a bit grey.

I grew up in Kenya, not in Nairobi, but we visited often.
