 The Shard, London Bridge Tower

In the next couple of years I've been asked to keep a watch on the construction of the London Bridge Tower skyscraper (aka 'The Shard').

One thing I can't find is a streetmap showing its actual 'footprint', as I'm keen to record the area before demolition begins later this year. Does anyone know where I'll find a website showing such useful sorts of information?

(Incidentally, architectural websites are too showy and full of 'flash' for such prosaic things, it seems. I certainly can't find one on the official Shard site. Why are architectural sites so always so full of style and empty of prosaic, useful information?)
