For the Flatland Research Project, the monument that I choose was the London Bridge, located in London, England. The London bridge was reconstructed is 1973 and is made out of steel and concrete. But It was original built in the 1830s and formerly spanned the River Thames in London, England. It was dismantled in 1967 and relocated to Arizona. The Arizona bridge is a reinforced concrete structure clad in the original masonry of the 1830s bridge, which was purchased by Robert P. McCulloch from the City of London. One of the most memorial thing about the London Bridge is the beloved nursery rhyme in which it says “London Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down my fair lady. Which is about when the end of Roman rule in Britain in the early 5^th century London was slowly abandoned and the first bridge fell down.

Since the London bridge is a very complicated bridge I would like to draw it from the side (from the middle), the top, the underneath and the front entrance. These angles are all very different and the bridges have incredible detail that can be hard to draw but I am up to the challenge.
