There are many that come to mind, but here's a particularly cool-looking one: the SC 31 and US 501 interchange (https://www.google.com/maps/@33.7406454,-78.9516827,739m/data=!3m1!1e3) in Myrtle Beach, SC. Very interesting design.

Great looking turbine at i295 and SR 202 near Jacksonville. It's hard to believe this started life as a simple diamond.. what is now i295 was St. Johns Bluff Rd which ended at SR 202 for over 20 years.. my alma mater for undergrad, University of North Florida campus is the NE quadrant of the picture. Til the 1990s there was nothing else there. This would have looked like the middle of the woods(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180307/bde29691ac99412c04a9345497005da9.jpg)

Since we're all somehow drawn to turbines, I like the I-64/US 258 interchange in Hampton VA. I recall as a kid long ago this was a cloverleaf, now it's I guess a hybrid of a turbine and cloverleaf?

When I got a tour of the Springfield Interchange reconstruction when I was an intern with FHWA, VDOT was very proud that one of the ramps was one of the longest bridges that did not cross water in the country.

It's nicer now that you don't have to merge into the left lane as you're entering I-96 EB from US-23 SB. Exiting to the left isn't that bad but entering on the left sucks.

That short merge onto US-23 SB from I-96 EB still hurts though. MDOT has fixed some of the worst things about that area in the last few years (building I-96 over the top of Exit 148 and adding the Latson Rd exit (which should have been built the day I-96 opened through there; prior to that exit opening, people heading from EB 96 to the Lake Chemung area and vice versa either had to exit at downtown Howell or backtrack from Brighton via Grand River Ave)), but fixing the short merge still needs to be done

The intersection of I-70 and I-695 in Baltimore. It's very clean and aesthetically pleasing.
I-88 and I-355 is so cool
I think that although it is a terrible design, the I-40/I-44 interchange on OCK looks really neat, as well as a perfectionists dream interchange.
The "stack" in Connecticut (I-84 Exit 39A with CT 9) I always thought looked cool on maps. It's the only one of its type in New England and was built some 30 years before a motorist got a chance to travel it. Still today, it's only half-used, but a really nice design and how two interstates should connect with each other (originally intended for I-84 and I-291).

Well, there is quite a bit problematic about left exits.
I agree that on freeways they should be avoided and eliminated where possible.
He picked a fight with me in 2002 over an I-95 left exit that VDOT did not eliminate in a 1997 widening project.
I knew back then what was not easily postable via aerial photo in a newsgroup, that a huge landfill and creek were close to the highway, and that is why VDOT did not build a right-exiting semi-directional ramp, due to major environmental issues and uncertainly as to how far outside of the landfill itself the impacts extended --
https://www.google.com/maps/@38.6838272,-77.2246716,2459m/data=!3m1!1e3
The large area just to the south is an unbuilt part of the landfill.
Quote from: Rothman on March 19, 2018, 10:06:10 AM
Well, there is quite a bit problematic about left exits.
I don't see how it is an issue, only if building a right-exiting semi-directional ramp is not possible due to development or any other things, but otherwise I agree with Beltway, it should be avoided and eliminated where it can be.
IMO, left exits aren't great, but are largely fine provided there's not much chance of traffic backing up onto the mainline. Left entrances are, I think, a worse problem. One that I use frequently, from the eastbound US 78 freeway onto I-285 north, can be troublesome because everyone tends to hit the brakes starting right after the merge as they all try to make their way to the right in order to use I-85.

Almost the exact same design is used on the I-15/I-215 interchange south of Salt Lake City (https://goo.gl/maps/HcbmhP1C3MM2). I like how it looks, but I'm not a fan of the left entrance from 15 south to 215 east, especially since both of the lanes end within a half mile. Also, a significant amount of traffic uses the next exit to State Street. Coming from southbound 15, getting to that exit requires 4 to 6 lane changes.
Going back to the original topic, I've always thought the interchange of 401 and Allen Road (freeway stub) in the Toronto area is neat-looking when seen from an aerial photo:

Some of Toronto's other interchanges remind me a little of New Jersey in that you take a basic design and then just graft on whatever extra ramps you need to make it work.
In a similar vein to I-70 and I-695 near Baltimore, I think the junction of the M4 and the M5 near Bristol has a very clean look to it. (The junction of the M4 and the M25 Orbital near Heathrow suffers because it's off-center, or I guess I should say off-centre. The ramps cross off to one side of the M4 instead of right in the middle like this.)

Well, I would add that New Jersey seemingly added ramps willy-nilly over the years, so you ended up with things like:
* Hotel accessible from a NJ Turnpike ramp - and from US 46's mainline if you are quick (https://goo.gl/maps/bt7Dwhcxvgv): This is my go-to hotel when I am in the NYC area and all of the nav systems have trouble accessing the hotel. Sometimes, the system will just bypass the hotel and take me in a continuous loop; sometimes, it takes me in a long about way down the Turnpike, do a u-turn at a service plaza, and then back just so I can access the hotel from the Turnpike north ramp to US 46 east; other times, it takes me to some back streets in Ridgefield Park.
My parents have such a hard time with it but you get used to it - and then you just accept it. Somehow, it just works.

I-85/I-485 northern interchange
https://www.google.com/maps/@35.3479013,-80.7335401,1553m/data=!3m1!1e3
This is one of the first turbine interchanges in the US on Charlotte's I-485 at I-85. It requires more land but is much cheaper than flyovers/stacks. Earth is used to support roadway ramps for the most part.
This interchange on Raleigh's 540 Outerloop (Toll) is sure to be a doozy with construction starting soon. It must deal with I-40 and US70 (both major Beach routes [to different beaches] & 2 separate deep-water ports with all of Eastern NC heavily dependent upon).
(https://farm1.staticflickr.com/970/27176300257_0b5d60a891_b.jpg) (https://flic.kr/p/HptDfZ)interchange (https://flic.kr/p/HptDfZ) by Stephen Edwards (https://www.flickr.com/photos/151506681@N05/), on Flickr
The I-10/I-15 stack interchange in Ontario, CA is interesting in that it's quasi-symmetrical; EB 10>NB 15 and SB 15>EB 10 feature flyover ramps that diverge well before the direct-right ramps (EB 10>SB 15 and SB 15>WB 10) do. The other two divergences (NB 15 and WB 10) simply split the ramp in two directionally. This was likely done because the interchange was constructed after much of the surrounding industrial park (close to Ontario airport) was already in place, and Caltrans declined to impinge on their facilities any more than necessary. But it seems to work rather well; the principal between-freeway movements (westward I-10/northward I-15) feature exceptionally long-radius ramps for both flyover (E>N) and direct (S>W) movements -- basically L.A. to Las Vegas for weekend recreational traffic and L.A. to I-40 points for transcon commercial use. Icing on the cake: it looks nice from both ground and air.
The I-410 and US 281 interchange near San Antonio, TX (north side that was built within the past couple decades) is neat. I like the fancy brickwork that is on the flyovers.
I-110@I-105 interchange in Los Angeles is a nice stack interchange to look at along with Kellogg interchange in Pomona.

Atlanta's Spaghetti Junction I-85/I-285 should get an honorable mention for it's elegant & sinuous flyovers and it's symmetrical qualities.

Of course, the original (1953) "4-level" was and is the current US 101/CA 110 interchange at the northwest side of downtown L.A.; at its peak, it carried 4 U.S. highways (6,66,99,101) and one state route (11). Both the I-105/110 interchange in South Central L.A. and the "Kellogg" interchange (currently I-10/CA 57/CA 71) are classic "stack" interchanges -- but both with their own "twists" on the genre. 105/110 not only has full directional ramps for the general-purpose lanes for both freeways, but also full directional ramps for the HOV/express lanes as well; from the air it looks like exactly what it is -- a series of parallel ramps heading in all directions, while from the ground it looks like one is driving through a virtual forest of bridge bents! Put it this way: it's a definite "poster child"; to road afficionados it's the arguable epitome of the most complete and (largely -- there's one loop ramp hidden away in there) symmetrical freeway-to-freeway complex ever built, or, to anti-automotive activists, a prime illustration of freeway construction gone amuck!
The "Kellogg" (named after the hill up which I-10 climbs to the west) interchange is also a classic stack (minus all the HOV extras) -- but with an additional freeway (CA 71/the "Corona Freeway") coming in from the SE at a 45-degree angle to the crossing routes (CA 57 on the top and I-10 at the base), with access to and from northward CA 57 and westward I-10 (but not from the opposite directions except through surface-street connections). It's a very "tall" interchange, being built on the side of a hill with I-10 running along the base. It was also, until 2002, the eastern terminus of the signed I-210, which was cut back at that time to the CA 57/I-210/CA 210 interchange about five miles north in San Dimas (the circumstances of which have been extensively wrung out in other threads!). Incidentally, back in the day (meaning late '60's), the Kellogg Hill grade on I-10 was nicknamed "Kill-off Hill" by numerous drivers (myself included) who commuted regularly over that hill in less-than-optimal cars (a lot of us were functionally impoverished students at the time), since overheating on the 6%+ westbound grade was a regular occurrence. My '61 Chevy Bel Air "beater" was no exception; I tended to either head north to Arrow Highway or Foothill Blvd. or south to Valley Blvd. on my weekend trips home from UC Riverside to Glendale just to avoid "Kill-off" (the new CA 60/Pomona freeway wasn't much better between Pomona and Diamond Bar, and the I-210/Foothill freeway was being completed in small sections). At least it gave me a chance to scope out all the In-n-Out locations (this was their "home territory" before their rapid expansion in the '80's) in the vicinity.
I really like Interchange Kropp (https://www.google.se/maps/@56.0860585,12.7837868,1599m/data=!3m1!1e3) ("Torso") in southern Sweden. Simple yet elegant.

The "stack" in Connecticut (I-84 Exit 39A with CT 9) I always thought looked cool on maps. It's the only one of its type in New England and was built some 30 years before a motorist got a chance to travel it. Still today, it's only half-used, but a really nice design and how two interstates should connect with each other (originally intended for I-84 and I-291).

I was at the Hartford road meet 10 years ago when we visited it. I think that you were there, too. It was the coolest one I recall looking at on our Sunday drives, growing up.
How about the I-20/I-35E stack (https://goo.gl/maps/jpzB9EqKQEy)?
The I-280/I-680/US 101 interchange in San Jose, CA.
