Up She Goes


The Shard, set to become London and the UK's tallest building continues to rise.

I have been watching the work take place since the building previously on the site was demolished 2 years ago. The Shard is being built next to London Bridge Station so I get a close up view every day as I come into London.

The Shard's concrete core is now at the 30th floor and will rise to 84 floors and just over 1000 feet.

If you look closely at the picture (taken from outside my office on Blackfriars Road) you can now see the core peeping over the buildings between me and London Bridge. Soon the Shard will fill this gap. Exciting stuff!!!
