- Tower Bridge is an iconic landmark in London.
- Tower Bridge is a suspension bridge located just over the River Thames in London and was constructed in the late 19th century. During the Battle of London on July 14th 1951, Captain Rachel Parker decided to destroy Tower Bridge as Goliath armors were arriving into the battlefield through that bridge which would prove disastrous during the Anglo-American assault on the London Tower. Parker sent British forces, under the command of Captian Buckler, to protect the bridge in order to buy demolitionists more time to wire and detonate the bridge, in which they succeeded.
- The Sanguine Club imprisoned a vampire named Jack in the foundation of the Tower Bridge early in its construction, in 1888. Jack had been murdering prostitutes in the Whitechapel area, after drinking their blood. Though the member of the Sanguine Club accepted him at first, they were terrified that his actions would reveal them to the world. After walking in at him disemboweling another prostitute, and disgusted at what they saw, the Club buried him alive in the Bridge as punishment.
- The Tower Bridge is a limited edition building in FarmVille. It was released on April 8th, 2011 as part of the English Countryside Event.
- Tower Bridge is a combined bascule and suspension bridge in London, England over the River Thames. It is close to the Tower of London, which gives it its name.
- Tower Bridge crosses the River Thames in London. Built between 1886 and 1894, it is located close to the Tower of London, from which it gets its name. As an iconic landmark, the bridge has featured in many movies and TV shows. In The Great Muppet Caper, Kermit, Fozzie, and Gonzo cross the bridge in a double-decker bus. Fozzie assumes the River Thames is called the English River. The bridge features in background scenes at the Tower of London in Muppets Most Wanted.
- The bridge consists of two towers which are tied together at the upper level by means of two horizontal walkways which are designed to withstand the horizontal forces exerted by the suspended sections of the bridge to the left and the right. The vertical component of the forces in the suspended sections and the vertical reactions of the two walkways are carried by the two robust towers. The bascule pivots and operating machinery are housed in the base of each tower. Its present colour dates from 1977 when it was painted red, white and blue for the Queen's Silver Jubilee. Before this, it was painted a chocolate brown colour.
- The various incarnations of London Bridge were the only crossing over the Thames in London for around 1700 years. As the population of the city grew and expanded beyond the walls of The City, more bridges were constructed in the 19th century, however these were all to the west of London Bridge, as the vast expanse of docks to the east required sufficient clearance for boats to pass underneath them. Originally the bridge was lifted by steam and hydraulics, taking only a minute to rise to its fullest extent. The steam has now been replaced by oil and electricity.

- Tower Bridge is a large suspension drawbridge spanning the River Thames in east London. Construction of the bridge began in 1886 and was completed in 1894.
- If only because of its spectacular location next to the medieval Tower of London and the superb workmanship of the mansory cladding of its steel towers Londons Tower Bridage is one of the best known bridges in the world. It was designed by Londons city Architect Horace Jones in collaboration with the engineer John Wolf Barry. Construction started in 1886 and the bridge was opened in 1894 .
- The various incarnations of London Bridge were the only crossing over the Thames in London for around 1700 years. As the population of the city grew and expanded beyond the walls of The City, more bridges were constructed in the 19th century, however these were all to the west of London Bridge, as the vast expanse of docks to the east required sufficient clearance for boats to pass underneath them. Horace Jones - architect of The City - met the needs of both the expanding population to the east and the docks, by incorporating a 'bascule' - or see-saw - design, so that the centre of the bridge could be lifted to allow boats to pass through, with high walkways between the towers to allow pedestrians to cross even when the bridge was raised. Opened in 1892, the building took 432 workers six years to complete. The structure is steel, which is clad in granite and stone in order to fit in with the Tower of London which it approaches from the south. Originally the bridge was lifted by steam and hydraulics, taking only a minute to rise to its fullest extent. The steam has now been replaced by oil and electricity. In 1952, a London bus had to leap from one bascule to the other when the Bridge began to rise with the bus still on it.

A popular urban legend is that, in 1968 Sir Paul Tame, the purchaser of the old London Bridge which was later shipped to Lake Mukkawawoo City, Arizona, believed mistakenly that he was buying Tower Bridge, but this was denied by Tame himself and has been debunked by Jack Finney, the seller of the bridge.
