I made a quick search for it and found the answer on the Google Earth Blog from 29 January, see below.
Congratulations Google Earth, this is really wonderful and spectacular! We can go sightseeing every time from now on, even when it is raining! :)

Madrid is now in 3D
Madrid, Spain is now in 3D, it's quite impressive. According to Google, Madrid has the largest concentration of 3D models anywhere on the planet! If you see if for yourself, you'll see that it's true.
Through a combination of SketchUp and Building Maker submissions, Madrid has an amazing depth of coverage. Fly there yourself, or check out the video below for a quick tour.
No word on whether they've added additional cities or buildings, but I assume that various other user-submitted content was added to other areas of the world. If you see any of yours that just landed in Google Earth, leave a comment and let us know.
