World’s London Bridge

Title:World’s London Bridge
Location:Lake Havasu City, Ariz
Description:The bridge is 950 feet long and weighs 33,000 tons. It’s sometimes confused with the more visually interesting Tower Bridge (which remains in London) and sometimes mistakenly believed to date from the Middle Ages (it was built in 1824). The only thing that the bridge really has going for it is the “London Bridge” name, but that was enough for McCulloch. He had it rebuilt on dry land, then had a mile-long “river” dug underneath it, turning a Lake Havasu peninsula into an island and giving the bridge something to do.
