Die Brücken der USA-Ostküste haben (für mich) etwas Spektakuläres: Im Bereich zwischen Delaware River (Philadelphia) bis Maine (Portland) sind es die alten freitragenden Stahlbrücken (vgl. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilever_bridge), zum Teil noch aus dem Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts (z.B. die Brooklyn Bridge aus 1883), die aber sukzessive durch neuere ersetzt werden. Im Süden sind es eher die Kilometer langen Brücken wie z.B. die 37 km lange Chesapeake Bay Bridge oder die vier jeweils ca. 15 km langen Tampa Bay Bridges. Die folgende Tabelle enthält eine Zusammenstellung der schönsten und spektakulärsten Brücken. (Die unten aufgeführten Wikipedia-Einträge enthalten u.a. die exakten Ortsangaben und Links auf Kartendienste wie z.B. Google Maps.)
