the bridge is CLAD in the original granite stone from London to make it look the same, but it was built from scratch to resemble the original one.

Wikipedia said that the original all stone version in London was sinking and weighed something like 330,000 tons, but that the rebuild of it using the original stones from England only weighed 30,000 tons because it was cladding on a steel frame.

Weird and cool.
