Flag redesign shows City Hall floating into Milwaukee like a cruise ship (onmilwaukee.com)

Bauman's complaint at that meeting was that the flag did not depict an obvious Milwaukee landmark, unlike the current flag, which is a smorgasbord of pictorial imagery from the 1950s.

At the meeting, Bauman suggested plopping City Hall into the center of the People's Flag, and as you can see from the image above, he got busy on his computer to come up with a bastardization of the design that finds City Hall floating like a cruise ship into the Milwaukee harbor.

Does this guy also think that the Stars and Stripes is lacking a photo of the White House? How about the CN Tower plastered on the Canadian flag, or the Eiffel Tower on the French Tricolour?

or the Eiffel Tower on the French Tricolour?

I'm not proposing changing the French flag, but a stylised depiction of the Eiffel tower could work on a flag.
