London Arch in 2014The formation prior to its collapse when it was still known as "London Bridge", in 1973
The span closer to the shoreline, ironically, collapsed unexpectedly on January 15, 1990,[1][2] leaving two tourists (Kelli Harrison and David Darrington) stranded on the outer span before being rescued by police helicopter.[3] No one was injured in the event. Prior to the collapse, the arch was known as London Bridge because of its similarity to its namesake.
