Britain's New Tallest Building


'Shard London Bridge', the shard of glass skyscraper, has just overtaken the current British record-holding skyscraper One Canary Wharf - and it is only partially complete.

When complete, the building will be 310m high, and it will contain shops, offices and a hotel.

It's designed by famous architect Renzo Piano (see the initially controversial and now much-loved Centre Pompidou).
