EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Piece of London's Past: London Bridge over the River Thames, 1903 2. Description: This photograph, taken in 1903, showcases the iconic London Bridge spanning the historic River Thames in its original location. The bridge, adorned with its distinctive red-brick towers and intricate stone detailing, stands as a testament to London's rich history. The scene is further enhanced by the bustling traffic of horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians, adding a sense of energy and vitality to the image. 3. Background: London Bridge, one of the most famous landmarks in London, England, was originally built between 1173 and 1209 AD. However, the bridge in this photograph is actually the fifth version of the bridge, which was constructed between 1825 and 1831. This particular version of London Bridge remained in place until 1968, when it was dismantled and sold to Robert P. McCulloch, an American businessman. 4. Journey to Arizona: McCulloch purchased the bridge with the intention of rebuilding it in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, as a tourist attraction. The bridge was carefully dismantled, and each stone was numbered and transported to the United States. The reconstruction was completed in 1971, and the bridge was reopened as a major tourist destination. 5. Legacy: Today, London Bridge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, continues to attract visitors from around the world. While it no longer serves its original purpose as a vital transportation link in London, it remains a symbol of the enduring connection between the two cities and a reminder of the rich history that lies within the stones of this iconic structure. 6. Conclusion: This photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of London Bridge as it once stood over the River Thames. It serves as a reminder of the bridge's storied past and its journey to a new life in Arizona. The image invites us to reflect on the passage of time and the enduring allure of history.
