Ok, so I figured since a Show Us Your had been done for everything else, why not one where you see something in RL that looks strikingly like something out of Sim City 4? If there -is- such a thread, my apologies. Anyways, I was inspired by this viaduct in my town that looks just like a NAM one way overpass.

The roughly centered pair of one ways is a perfect doppelganger for a NAM overpass. Next few days, I'll see if I can borrow a camera so I can take pictures from the ground better, eh heh. Anyways, if you've seen any like it, feel free to post!
All the ones that I've ever seen would use the RL equivalent of hole diggers and on-slope pieces - never any of the regular three-tile slope transitions.
Haha, yeah, this one's sort of an on-slope but it has the same sloping ends as the games' do.
How about a RL Maxis Ground Highway?

That thing looks so squished it could fit in one tile... Yeesh, I'd hate to drive that~!
Station Zoetermeer (http://maps.google.nl/maps?f=q&hl=nl&geocode=&q=station+zoetermeer&sll=52.469397,5.509644&sspn=3.10568,6.987305&ie=UTF8&ll=52.047832,4.47754&spn=0.003062,0.006824&t=k&z=17)
A train station, a tram station, a bus station and a pendestrian highway and avenue overpass in one!

Actually, believe it or not, it's not too bad driving it. I catch the bus down that section of freeway every day, and everybody stays in their laneĀ - there's room for buses, etc, etc.
Actually, I'm impressed in how they managed to widen that to six lanes from four lanes in the same space without a narrowing in the lane width.
It must go straight to crap any time there's an accident though... :-[
