Dentsu Tsukiji Building

The Dentsu Tsukiji Building features raw concrete forms across its 13 floors, reaching a height of 60 meters in central Tokyo.

Architect Kenzō Tange designed this structure in 1967 after height restrictions were lifted, allowing for vertical expansion in the growing metropolis.

The building received the BCS Prize in 1967 for its contribution to Japanese architecture and its representation of post-war construction methods.

Located at coordinates 35.669228, 139.770347, the structure contains two basement levels and serves as a reference point in the Tsukiji district.

The building's geometric patterns and structural elements demonstrate the transition from traditional Japanese architecture to modern construction techniques.
