Allow me to quote a firaxis member for a moment; "There is, however, a new Great Wonder (Longevity) which provides a similar pop boom."
Longevity?
What is this trying to reflect? How is this a wonder?
This is such an abstract concept, it's difficult to try to visualize this as a great wonder.
Let's refer to Webster's dictionary on this one
lon·gev·i·ty (ln-jv-t, lôn-)
n. pl. lon·gev·i·ties
1. Long life; great duration of life: His longevity vexed his heirs.
Length or duration of life: comparing the longevities of the two peoples.
2. Long duration or continuance, as in an occupation: had unusual longevity in the company; her longevity as a star.
Interesting, but a wonder? Perhaps something else could have been used to reflect Longevity, but not simply the word Longevity itself. Maybe the rock of Gibraltor or something. I don't know, but you get the point.
At this point I am somewhat critical of this abstract concept being considered a wonder, it seems as hokey as the whole "rider" thing. IMHO
