Press Release: The Iconic London Bridge in Lake Havasu City
Lake Havasu City, AZ — Over 50 years ago, the renowned London Bridge, originally built in the 1830s, was dismantled in England and meticulously reconstructed in the Arizona desert. By the 1960s, the bridge was deemed unstable and put up for sale by the City of London. American businessman Robert McCulloch made the surprising winning bid, facilitating its relocation to Lake Havasu City.
Transported via ship to Long Beach, the bridge was reconstructed on dry land before a diversion of the Colorado River was created to flow beneath it. Since its completion in 1971, the London Bridge has transformed into a prominent tourist attraction, drawing visitors from across the globe. Many are astonished to find authentic granite blocks from England nestled in this unexpected locale.
Surrounded by a vibrant array of pubs, restaurants, and water activities, the London Bridge offers guests a unique opportunity to experience a piece of English history without leaving the U.S. For more information about visiting this historic site, please click here for further details.
