London Bridge vs Tower Bridge
Yes, there is a London Bridge and a Tower Bridge. AND London Bridge is not Tower Bridge! So why do I get them mixed up?!??!?? Apparently the Brits laugh at us Americans for this, so I'm not alone my fellow citizens. I'm gonna try and bring this all to light.
London bridge was bought by an American in 1971 and is now in Lake Havasu in Arizona. Rumor has it that the buyer thought he was getting the Tower bridge with the towers on it and drawbridge, but he denied this rumor. But the Brits still like a laugh over this. So humor them and smile.
So after the sale of London Bridge the Brits had to put another one up in its place and the London Bridge now in London is a modern looking one.
I guess when you go to the Tower Bridge its look is so iconically London that we assume its London Bridge. So, next time you're in London and see a bridge with the towers, don't say out loud, " There's London Bridge!" cuz now you know!
