In recent time, while time is running very fast, there have been lots of constructions, are being built in everywhere. Especially, Changi Airport Terminal 3, opened its doors in the beginning of 2008. It is not a huge structure to house huge spaces, but also it is an environmental issue of today. Singapore Flyer, the sister of London Eye with a height of 135 m. from a height of 165m. says welcome to the new arrivals to Singapore from Changi. In Little India, the La Salle Art School, shines also during the night time while going to esplanade, but never reachable on time. There are several high rises residential in Singapore, Little India, besides the official skyscrapers in city center. In Australia, Surfers Paradise is full with skyscrapers as residential for summer times. The airport in Brisbane welcomes to the passengers from Singapore, and makes them go to Sydney. The city pattern of Sydney is a real copy of London, with Hyde Park, and street names around. First stop is at Sydney Opera House, surely. Its architectural and structural solution, coming from a period 1957 and 1973, is still unique in the world. From inside of the Sydney Opera House towards Harbour Bridge during night time, gives enough idea what the Harbour Bridge looks like. Towards Darling Harbour, along the streets, a lot of skyscrapers take place as offices. Around Darling Harbour, the new environmental development, named King Street Wharf, announces about lots of addresses for eating during the day, defining the new name of enjoyment in Sydney. The convention center in Darling Harbour is ready for every exhibition. And the shopping center, nearby the convention center and the sea museum at the next side of the wooden bridge for monorail connection serve for the happiness of the people in Sydney. The New South Wales Museum, just across the Royal Botanical Gardens, is a great chance to meet with talented Australian artists and their products under a huge construction. In the paper, the flow about the current issues of civil and environmental engineering in Singapore and Australia will be defined with their architectural and structural explanations.
