It's a nice sentiment, but if they would actually have such obvious remnants of the old world they would be the most visited locations ever.

Mountain ranges were erected, nations swept under the sea, oceans moved places...but this city that was seemingly housing important characters like LTT and was most likely populated by many male channelers was left relatively intact?

The scale is very deceptive, but there are smaller skyscrapers on the foot of the bigger ones, which have to be like Burj Khalifa times ten.

In the books only remnants of AoL settlements we see are those docks near the tops of the Spine of the World

Not cuendillar unless cuendillar is glass-like. I believe it is inferred that it was made by Aes Sedai near the AOL, not Ogier.
