Asahi-seimei Ōtemachi building, Commercial skyscraper in Ōtemachi, Japan.
The Asahi-seimei Ōtemachi building is a tall modern office tower with a glass and steel structure in Tokyo's financial district north of the imperial grounds. The tower houses many office spaces and includes underground passages that connect to surrounding buildings in the area.
The building was developed in the early 1990s by Mitsubishi Estate Company as part of Tokyo's financial district expansion during that era. The project came during a period when the city was modernizing its economic centers.
The building sits at a crossroads in Tokyo's financial district where office workers move through its lobbies and passages daily. These spaces connect different parts of the neighborhood and serve as gathering points for the business community.
The building is located near multiple transit stations and stops, making it easy to reach by public transportation. Visitors can enter the building directly through Ōtemachi subway station without needing to go outside.
The building was constructed using specialized earthquake-resistant methods developed by Shimizu Corporation during its creation. These techniques allow the structure to withstand powerful tremors while maintaining its structural integrity.
