Why did the Reapers choose to focus their attention around London in order to build their big sky-lift thingy? I can't remember any particular reason being given. Did the Reapers just randomly point at some cool spot on the map and go wild? Just curious really since I'm wondering if I missed something.
I also found it a bit off Big Ben was perfectly fine.
Why was London so important?

Well... good questions. Long before the End and Moving Citadel Andersson said that in London something Big goes on.
They never explained that - Put it on the List.

Because that's where the whole ME3 hype started (with the first cinematic trailer with the Big Ben guy) and that's also where it ended (because everything after London was a big f*cking let-down).

Alright maybe I'm blocking out so much that I entirely forgot but why did the Reapers put a transporter *anywhere* in the first place?

Probably for ease of harvesting. I bet there were more around the world.

Why not? There wasn't any explicit explanation, I think they just poked the map.
Should it have been... Washington instead? Beijing?
I think it was chosen, (quoting Jack) "because hey, why the f...k not?"

That seems a stretch, why to the Citadel? They've obviously never used the Citadel in such a manner before, why start now?
Especially when it's in their interests to not have a convenient organic usable transporter to the one thing they don't want anybody anywhere near.

I'm assuming it was a quick way to transport dead human bodies onto the citadel so they could harvest them and make a human reaper.

If they really needed it... why not in a cave? Inside a volcano. An underwater volcano. An underwater volcano surrounded by forcefields and Reapers.

Because they would have needed some sort of device or vehicle that allowed them to transport things back and forth from the citadel, you know, like flying contraptions capable of traversing through space. But since they didn't have those, magic space portal pillar of shiny shinyness.

It would make sense if they made it either for the Illusive Man or to lure Shepard in. Or there is some kind of organic entity that we don't know about yet

they landed in the UK first 
... then after destroying london they most likely thought
Reaper: "yo harby plop the teleport thingy over here"
Harbinger: "idiots we need the citidel"
Reaper 2: "Well why didnt we attack the citidel first?"
Harbinger: Well-
Reaper 3: Your suppose to be the oldest one here.. why didnt we attack the citidel first?!
Harbinger: "lalalalala not listening to busy destroying humans" *Reaper foghorn*
Reapers: *mad face*
also if you read some of the datapads in the final battle.. several of them say that they (whoever wrote them) was hearing voices in there head that said something along the lines of head towards the light.

Because London has five airports and the Reapers needed all those airstrips to fly people in.

Because Big Ben looks awesome either with blue, red or even green background colour. And the Reapers knew it!

They wanted Major Coats to have an in-game appearance, "the Big Ben guy." UK HQ had the first visual too.
