SkyscraperPage Forum - LONDON | London Bridge Tower - "The Shard" | 1,017 FT / 310 M

That's a cool shot!

Does anyone know what is going to be on the top few floors of this? Will they be inhabited? It seems like they would be awfully small to be of any use. In the Transamerica Pyramid in San Francisco the point is basically the roof.

Here's a more detailed explanation.

Right side of the pic, see that radio mast in the distance? I'd like to climb about halfway up it with the camera. You could see way more of London in one view than you could from even a highrise in town.

People jokingly refer to it as the Eiffel Tower.

That glass gap is really annoying me. Will someone please put the glass for that section up already.

^ Really. This is the worst time in the point of the construction to get MAD. The Olympics are coming up, and this thing is basically topped out. The top can take as long as it wants.
