Yoyogi Kaikan, Mid-century commercial building in Sendagaya district, Tokyo, Japan

The eight-story Yoyogi Kaikan features a weathered facade and a triangular spiral staircase next to the Yamanote Line railroad tracks.

Built in 1969, this structure stands as a testament to Tokyo's rapid urban development during Japan's economic growth period of the 1960s.

The building gained recognition through its appearance in the 1970s television drama Kizu Darake no Tenshi and later in the anime film Weathering with You.

Located steps from Yoyogi Station's west exit, the building contains several small shops and provides views of the adjacent NTT Docomo skyscraper.

The building's rustic architecture contrasts with modern Tokyo, creating a time capsule of 1960s Japanese commercial building design.
