Favorite Interchange

[Voyager]

I-10/I-605 in the LA area. I love the design of it.

[BigMattFromTexas]

San Angelo, Tx
Loop 306, U.S 87, U.S 277 Interchange.
It's small but i like it

[74/171FAN]

Springfield Interchange(I-95/I-495/I-395).  I really like driving on the I-95 flyovers(especially the view).

[ComputerGuy]

I-5 at Broadway/41st Street NE...a flyover/HOV tunnel with an SPUI!

[Bryant5493]

I-85 @ I-285 (Spaghetti Junction)
I-75 @ I-285 (Cobb Cloverleaaf)
I-85/285 @ SR 279 and SR 14 Connector (SW Perimeter)


Be well,

I like my I-80, US 46, and NJ 23 Spaghetti Bowl. It's my local "famous" interchange.

I-94/I-75.  One of my favourite views of Detroit is the flyover from 75N to 94W

[Greybear]

I like the High Five (I-635/US 75) interchange on the north side of Dallas.

Another one of my favorites is the downtown Dallas Mixmaster (I-30/I-35E). Sometimes I grumble about how it's laid out, but it's still one of my all-time favorites.

The I-80/I-180 junction  in Cheyenne is my favorite interstate-to-interstate interchange in the county 

Kidding aside though, I love the I-25/I-70 stack interchange, but that might be because I don't have a lot of personal experience driving stacks

The Flying Wye in Boise is nice, as is the I-705/SR 509 SPUI in Tacoma, but that might all be nostalgia too.

I do like the eastern I-80/I-215/UT-186 interchange in Salt Lake too. That's a really cool design given the geography.

Another interchange that I like -- well, two really.

1) SR 280 (Delk Road/South Cobb Drive) @ US 41/SR 3 (Cobb Parkway) -- this interchange is near Dobbins A.R.B.

2) Pleasant Hill Road @ US 23/SR 13 (Buford Highway) -- Pleasant Hill Road was tunneled up underneath US 23/SR 13 (Buford Highway). This interchange is, say, two miles west of I-85 and Gwinnett Place Mall.

That's it for now.

I'm going to be weird and name a couple of interchanges that are traffic nightmares but have some very unique and interesting designs.

First, I-87/I-95 in the Bronx.
I-87 is in the Harlem River valley. I-95 is up high crossing said river. So, there's nearly 100 feet vertically between the two highways. A couple of the ramps connect directly to the bridge itself. The eastern part is essentially built into the side of a cliff. Also connecting here is the Washington Bridge. And, finally, a pair of local streets go right through it. One goes over it (which, ironically enough, is named Undercliff Avenue), the other (Sedgwick Avenue) goes under it.
And let me tell you, Sedgwick Avenue under that interchange... is surreal. On the one hand, you have this huge busy interchange towering right over you. On the other hand, you're completely in no-man's land, on a street strewn with litter that few cars even go down, let alone pedestrians.

The other is just to the west: the interchange at the east end of the George Washington Bridge, with the Henry Hudson Parkway. Now this one's a real piece of work. Like it's brother to the east, it's got some of that "built into the side of a cliff" thing going, though not as drastically. It also has a street that goes under it (Riverside Drive)... which actually gets involved rather than just passing through. Many of the ramps go directly onto the bridge itself here, too.
It also plays host to something which I find quite amusing: a connection which is completely possible in theory but which attempting to actually make in practice takes balls. The movement of honor is connecting from the Henry Hudson south to the Lower Level of the bridge.
I'll let the picture handle this:

Good luck.

The I-10/Water Street interchange in Downtown Mobile.

[Alex]

The I-10/Water Street interchange in Downtown Mobile.

That one is in danger of being torn down too, though I think its unlikely it will happen.

[flowmotion]

GWB/Henry Hudson interchange is really cool.

I've always been fond of the East Los Angeles interchange (I-5/I-10/US-101/CA-60), although I'm glad I don't have to drive through it on a regular basis.

[mapman]

Along the same lines as Duke87, I'll mention a unique interchange where I grew up in Santa Cruz, CA -- the CA 1/CA 17 interchange, locally known as "The Fishhook."  At the north end is a nearly complete trumpet interchange (which gives the interchange its name).  At the south end are both a partial Directional T interchange (i.e. two left exits) and a half-diamond interchange.

[74/171FAN]

My favorite interchanges are the ones that take me where I need to go...

Which ones take you where you need to go?

[deathtopumpkins]

I'm gonna have to say the I-264/464 interchange in Norfolk, VA.

Look at it and you'll see that it's VERY unique.

[WillWeaverRVA]

The I-95/VA 150/VA 895 interchange is quite impressive to look at.

Depends on where I'm going...

What about if you're going to work(or school in my case, in which there are none)?

[deathtopumpkins]

It's also very painful if you're trying to get from 464 to the Downtown Tunnel...

Then good thing I never have a reason to go that way. 

[akotchi]

I second the I-95/VA 895/VA 150 interchange, for two reasons.  One, the high ramps and river bridge are breathtaking in height.  Second, the signing at the interchange is mostly my design.

[DrZoidberg]

I don't know why, but I've always liked the following.

- The Badger Interchange in Madison, WI (I-94 meeitng WI-30 and I-39/90)

- The Cascade Interchange just a ways north where WI 78 heads to the south, I-39 heads north, and I-90/94 continues northwest.

[njroadhorse]

My personal favorites are

- I-81 at U.S. 22/322 in Harrisburg.  It's so cool to drive through on 81 either direction, and it was my first introduction to the stack.
- Garden State Parkway at NJ 440/US 9/I-287.  Arguably the most complex interchange in New Jersey, and it looks awesome when you weave in and out.
- I-76/I-676 and I-76 Exit 340 on both sides of the river.  These are my favorite urban interchanges, especially Exit 340.

I-10 @ S. Carrollton Ave/Tulane Ave/Airline Hwy,


Red is I-10 West related, Blue is I-10 East related.

I find the I-20/I-220 interchange in Bossier City interesting.  It's a cloverleaf "waiting to happen". All of the dirtwork was done for a full cloverleaf interchange for whenever they decided to build south of I-20 here.  The only problem is that if they do, they will be building the interstate thru Barksdale A.F.B.  The Air Force may have a problem w/that, but w/ I-69 coming thru somewhere, and I-49 actually becoming an INTERstate, they may need to build a south loop in the next 20 years.
