Re: Mini Challenge # 696: Where land and water meet: exhibits

A more varied mix this time. I am once again struck by the geographically diverse nature of the images posted in this MC: that is one of my biggest take aways and pleasures from the thread. Love the Snake River bridge: reminds me of something very similar I have seen in Oregon.

Shorelines for commerce....

The Panara River at Rosario Argentina, some 200 miles up river from Buenos Aires. The river at this point can still accommodate ocean cargo ships and Rosario is a huge commercial port, particularly with commodities, steel, and chemicals.

The Gold Coast - Chicago

Chicago River

Thames in London

Bridge over the Snake River - Idaho.

Another bridge - connecting Duluth MN to Superior WI. Duluth Harbor was the gateway for midwestern goods to the rest of the country. The Voyagers and beaver pelts to lumber, taconite, and wheat.
