A Return Visit to London Bridge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, Part 2

Eric and I visited London Bridge and Lake Havasu City on January 8, 2014.  We found walkways near London Bridge empty.  Many of the shops at London Bridge were stocking
their shelves in anticipation of the arrival of winter tourists.

of London Bridge in Lake

Havasu City.

Heraldic Dragons on columns were placed at entries to London in the early 17th century.  The tradition was transplanted with London Bridge.

Robert McCullough bought the

1831 London Bridge for

$2,460,000 at auction in 1968.

He spent an additional $7,000,000 to have the bridge disassembled and each block was numbered before shipment to Arizona.  The Bridge reassembled over Bridgewater Channel in Lake Havasu City and rededicated in 1971.
