A number of London Bridges have existed briefly in the past.
The original stone bridge was built by the Romans around 50 AD. The Saxons rebuilt the bridge sometime around 990 AD, but it was destroyed during a war. The Normans built a wooden bridge in 1066 that was destroyed by wind in 1091, and another built by 1100 was burned in 1136.
Henry II had a new stone bridge built, complete with a chapel, between 1176 and 1209. Several entire buildings were constructed on the bridge, and it was not demolished until 1832, replaced by the "New London Bridge" begun in 1824. This was the bridge dismantled in 1968 and reconstructed in Lake Havasu City, Arizona.

The Colosseum, by a very long way. Construction on the Colosseum started in 70-72 A.D. The London Bridge opened in 1973 You may be thinking, "what?", if this date is not even close.
