A semiconductor structure is provided that includes a MOL and/or BEOL structure for low resistance, low capacitance and design flexibility. The structure includes a first metal level including a plurality of first metal lines and a plurality of first metal vias located at same level within a first interlayer dielectric material layer, and a second metal level located above the first metal level. The second metal level includes a plurality of second metal lines and a plurality of second metal vias located at a same level within a second interlayer dielectric material layer. The first metal level is formed utilizing a damascene process and the second metal level is formed utilizing a substrative etch. A single metallization is used to provide the first and second metal levels.
