Hiroshima Crystal Plaza, Commercial skyscraper in Naka Ward, Hiroshima, Japan.
Hiroshima Crystal Plaza is a commercial skyscraper in Naka Ward, Hiroshima, recognized by its blue glass facade. The tower rises 20 floors and contains a mix of office floors and retail spaces at its base.
The tower was completed in 1992 as part of a development project backed by Hiroshima Prefecture. It was built during a period when the city was actively modernizing its central districts.
The building stands near the Motoyasu River and is visible from several points along the waterfront. It serves mainly as a place for office workers and shoppers who pass through the area on a daily basis.
The tower is within walking distance of a train station, so arriving by public transport is straightforward. Parking is available on-site for those coming by car, and elevators connect all floors directly.
Each floor of the building has its own independent climate control system, separate from the floors above and below. This setup is uncommon for a tower of this size and allows very different temperatures to coexist within the same building.
