NTT Hibiya Building

The NTT Hibiya Building is an office structure in Tokyo with ten above-ground floors and one basement level. It follows the Teishin architectural approach, a functional style developed through Japanese postal and telecommunications construction methods.

The building was completed in 1961 by architect Hideo Kunikata and has shaped the area since then. A major renovation took place through October 2007 and modernized the structure for contemporary use.

The NTT Hibiya Building exemplifies Teishin architecture, integrating functional design principles developed through Japanese postal and telecommunications construction methods.

The structure sits within walking distance of multiple train stations, including JR Shinbashi and JR Yurakucho, plus various Tokyo Metro lines. This central location makes it easy to reach the neighborhood and move around.

The building received both the AIJ Prize and the BCS Prize for its contributions to Japanese architecture. These honors reflect the structure's significance for Tokyo's urban development.
