Tower Bridge, London

One of London's most recognisable sights, familiar from dozens of movies. Its Neo-Gothic towers and sky-blue suspension struts add extraordinary elegance to what is a supremely functional structure. London was a thriving port in 1894 when it was built as a much-needed crossing point in the east, equipped with a then-revolutionary stream-driven bascule mechanism that could raise the roadway to make way for oncoming ships in just three minutes!
