Disqualified.

... it's still around.

but as a sad shadow of it's former self

[Maladict]

The Lighthouse or the Colossus. But I would want them to have survived, I don't actually want any of them restored.

Assume that it survived absolutely intact since antiquity then.

This is too hard, I can't even bring the list down to five

I really can't imagine garbon saying that.

Apparently, there are plans to rebuild the Colossus - sort of.

Didn't the statue supposedly have feet on opposite sites of the harbor? That would be awesome.

It's traditionally depicted that way, but many modern scholars think that it stood beside the harbor entrance, not astride it.

If it did stand astride the harbor entrance, I think it's the one I'd most like to see restored.  If it stood beside the entrance, than I'd go with the lighthouse.  It was itself an impressive structure--it would still be one of the tallest lighthouses in the world, though not the tallest.

Can we unban Civ jokes in this thread?

That circular Crusader fortress there is supposed to be built on the Colossus' base.

[Grinning_Colossus]

I think my choice is obvious. I just hope the Greeks properly earthquake-proof it this time.

[Monoriu]

Probably Hanging Gardens. 

The pyramids already exist, so no point to waste the restoration effort on them. 

The lighthouse, statues etc are just big versions of what we already have.  A big lighthouse was probably a big deal in ancient times.  It would be unremarkable nowadays. 

The Hanging Gardens would be more interesting.  Maybe.

The Eigth Wonder of the World

Venus in blue jeans?

[celedhring]

The Colossus for sure. It's the most extravagant of them all (and I *demand* it to straddle the harbor), with the Statue of Zeus in second spot.

I loved the old sword and sandal flick when I was a kid (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbWOWLs1LXc) - Sergio Leone's first film as a director.
