Description:London Bridge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. It was originally built in 1831 over the Thames River in London, England. In 1967, the City of London offered the historic bridge for sale. The bridge was purchased for $2.46 million in 1968, disassembled and moved to Arizona. The original face stones, balustrade and corbels were installed over a new concrete structure over a man-made lake. The bridge is a three-span concrete closed-spandrel arch.

The new London Bridge was dedicated on October 10, 1971.
