Originally constructed in 1831, the London Bridge began deteriorating in the 1960s, leading the City of London to sell it.

In 1963, American entrepreneur Robert P. McCulloch bought and dismantled the bridge, shipping it to Lake Havasu City in Arizona piece by piece. The reconstruction took three years to complete and opened as a tourist attraction on October 10, 1971.
