A major urban redevelopment of a former railway freight yard in Minato. It transformed the area into a mixed-use district featuring high-rise office towers, luxury hotels, residential buildings, shopping, and green spaces. Adjacent to Shimbashi Station, the project emphasizes transit-oriented development and has become a key business and commercial hub in Tokyo.
Renovations of the historic Marunouchi side of Tokyo Station were completed in 2012, meticulously restoring its original 1914 red-brick façade and domed rooftops while incorporating modern seismic upgrades. Meanwhile, redevelopment of the Yaesu side, which included the addition of the GranRoof canopy and new commercial and office towers, was scheduled for completion in 2013 to modernize the station’s eastern entrance and improve pedestrian access.
A mixed-use development in the Roppongi district of Minato. The complex includes shops, offices, residences, the Suntory Museum of Art, and the Ritz-Carlton Tokyo. Its central skyscraper, Midtown Tower, was the tallest building in Tokyo at the time of its completion, standing 248 meters tall. The site also features green spaces such as Midtown Garden and Hinokicho Park.
