A 330-meter-tall skyscraper that houses offices and commercial facilities opened on the 24th in Minato-ku, Tokyo. It overtakes "Abeno Harukas" in Osaka City to become the tallest in Japan.
This building was built in the Toranomon and Azabudai districts of Minato-ku, Tokyo, which are being redeveloped by major real estate companies Mori Building.
With 64 floors above ground and a height of 330 meters, it is the tallest building in Japan at the moment, surpassing "Abeno Harukas" in Osaka City.
On the 24th, after a ceremony to commemorate the opening, customers came one after another and enjoyed eating and shopping on the commercial floor.
A male customer said, "I came here to buy accessories for my wife, and I hope that the city center will be crowded with foreign customers when it opens today."
In the area that includes this building, which is named "Azabudai Hills," there are also offices, condominiums, and cultural facilities such as "digital art," and in the event of a disaster, about 3600,<> people who are unable to return home are ready to attend.
Mr. Hiroki Naka, who is in charge of the redevelopment of the Mori Building, said, "I feel a mixture of anticipation and nervousness when the opening finally begins, and I want to make it a place that contributes to strengthening international competitiveness."
In Tokyo, the construction of skyscrapers is proceeding one after another, including a building with a height of 385 meters near the Japan Bridge exit of Tokyo Station, which is expected to be completed in 2028.
