Check out Nick Chu's blog, the Gondola Project [0], where he's been documenting urban gondolas around the world for years.
Like La Paz, mountainous Medellin, Colombia has been building a system of gondolas [1], the first line of which opened in 2004. There's a $500 million system under construction in Lagos, Nigeria. And there are many smaller projects getting started elsewhere, including possibly in Hamburg, Germany, where voters will decide this week whether to fund a cable car over the Elbe.
