Bakersfield: I-90 at MP 5: Floating Bridge Midspan
Built around a floating crossing of Lake Washington, Seattle’s I-90 bridge corridor grew into a vital link with Mercer Island and Bellevue. The original Lake Washington Floating Bridge opened in 1940; after it sank during refurbishment in 1990, the replacement Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge opened in 1993. Alongside it, the Homer M. Hadley Memorial Bridge carries traffic in the opposite direction. Together, the spans take Interstate 90 across the lake, connecting Seattle’s urban core with Mercer Island’s wooded residential districts and the Eastside. A dedicated walking and cycling path follows the I-90 route, giving this transport landmark a role beyond through traffic. The corridor forms part of I-90, the interstate running from Seattle to Boston.

Vermont is best known in the United States for the Green Mountains, the north–south range that gives the state its defining wooded backbone. These coordinates lie in north-central Vermont, where rolling uplands and narrow valleys lead toward the Lamoille River. Mount Mansfield, rising to 4,393 feet (1,339 metres), is the state’s highest peak and stands farther west in the same mountain region. Lake Champlain forms much of Vermont’s western edge, while the Connecticut River traces its border with New Hampshire. Maple sugaring is a defining seasonal tradition, and Vermont is the nation’s leading maple-syrup producer. Explore nearby places to better understand how north-central Vermont relates to the Green Mountains, river valleys and Lake Champlain.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
