The Nairobi skyline. In the foreground is Uhuru ( Freedom) Park.
Nairobi is different than most cities in Africa.
The tower seen to the left is a landmark sight in Nairobi, the way the Empire State building is for New York.
Why are all the best built structures bank buildings ? It is a rhetorical question, of course.
Nairobi's signature building. It is actually a conference center.
The building in the very center is now a bank buiding but built in 1903 it is one of the oldest buildings here and once served as an army administration building during World War 1
City Hall
Parliament
A Hindu temple, one of many, serving the needs of the Indian community which controls the commerce of the city.

I have seen this in a few cities : a marker of the dead center of the city.
A memorial to the Kenyans who fought in World Wars 1 & 2.
Another memorial to the vets of the World Wars.
It looks very modern. The buildings are pretty and I like the sign on the bench.
