Parts of google earth/google maps will have areas without 3d buildings, making it only 2d imagery. Until something changes, it'll stay that way. Of course, there's Streetview to look at the buildings too.

Here is a link explaining why:

13. What areas can I see in 3D?
You can see what areas have 3D imagery by viewing the 3D Imagery layer in Voyager. We do not have 3D imagery available in all areas. However, you are much more likely to find 3D imagery over major urban areas in North America and Europe than in Asia or Australia due to local flight regulations.

14. How often are 3D areas updated?
We do not have a set refresh schedule for 3D imagery. Also, not all 3D imagery will be updated and some may be replaced with newer 2D imagery that is more useful. However, for key markets and for coverage expansion we make a continual best effort to refresh and expand our 3D imagery coverage.

15. Can I suggest 3D imagery for an area?
Yes. This imagery is more challenging to update, but we encourage you to let us know where you would like to see new 3D imagery. Within the Google Earth menu you can click on Send Feedback and use the text “I would like to recommend a 3D imagery collect” in the feedback window. And just like with a standard imagery request, please make sure that your area of interest is positioned in the middle of your screenshot and note that this is a suggestion and not an agreement to fulfill the request.
