EDITORS COMMENTS
Tower Bridge Open: A Feat of Engineering Mastery on the Thames This photograph showcases the iconic Tower Bridge in London, a magnificent bascule bridge that spans the River Thames. Designed by Horace Jones in 1886, the bridge was an ambitious project that aimed to provide better transport access across the Thames without obstructing the navigation of larger vessels. Tragically, Horace Jones passed away in 1887, before the bridge was completed. The bridge was then taken under the wing of Sir John Wolfe-Barry, who saw the project through to completion in 1894. The bridge's distinctive bascule design, with its two towers and movable sections, allowed larger ships to pass beneath it while maintaining road and rail traffic above. In this photograph, we see the Tower Bridge open, revealing the majestic Thames and the bustling activity on its banks. The image captures the essence of the bridge's engineering prowess, as well as the vital role it played in the transportation infrastructure of London during the late 19th century. The Tower Bridge remains a symbol of the city's rich history and enduring engineering legacy.
