The Shard How High?

[kinell]

As one of those disappointed that the Shard....wonderful to watch in construction..didnt finish in 'a point'....

Standing 1016 feet now finished how high would it be if it was allowed to continue to our visual pinnacle.....

Its like a bakewell tart with no cherry

By eye (getting a couple of bits of paper and lining them up with the building to make the point on the picture below) I'd say about 340meters (or 1115 feet)

Should an empty point be included in the height ? Would you include the height of a flagpole ?
