Mississippi - 1986

Paddlewheeler Creole Queen is unfortunately not an original steamboat. Constructed in Moss Point, Mississippi, the ship took its maiden voyage in 1983, so it was quite new in 1986. The Crescent City Connection bridge, called CCC, spans over the Mississippi River, connecting downtown New Orleans to the Westbank. In the past, the CCC was known as the Greater New Orleans Bridge, and it carries US Highway 90 over the Mississippi. Total length is 4093 m, opened 1958.
