NTT DoCoMo名古屋大厦, Corporate skyscraper in Nagoya, Japan
The NTT DoCoMo Nagoya Building is a skyscraper in the business district of Nagoya, Japan, with a glass panel exterior. The tower houses office spaces, telecommunications centers, and technical facilities for mobile services across its floors.
The building was completed in 2004 to serve as NTT DoCoMo's telecommunications base in Nagoya. Its construction marked a period of rapid expansion for mobile network infrastructure across Japan.
The building is widely recognized in Nagoya for the large clock mounted on its facade, which has become a casual landmark for people passing through the area. In Japanese cities, such details often serve as informal meeting points or orientation markers in daily life.
The building stands close to train stations and is easy to reach by public transport. Since it is an active business facility, access inside is generally limited to those with professional appointments.
A clock about 50 feet (15 meters) across is mounted on the building's facade, installed to mark the tenth anniversary of NTT DoCoMo. It can be seen from a considerable distance and is one of the most talked-about details of the tower among locals.
