The Samuel de Champlain Bridge in Montreal, Quebec, Canada

This is such a nice modern 8 lane bridge that has so much more capacity than the old 6 lane Champlain_Bridge. Adding rail rapid transit to the new bridge makes all the difference, as well as modern bike & foot paths.

It's not the longest of bridges, but its still an impressive size.

Montreal isn't another Paris or NYC, but perhaps it's a little bit of both. Albeit like a smaller version of them.
