Description

Wakagi Tower is a high-rise building located on the Kokugakuin University campus in Shibuya and houses lecture halls, laboratories, and administrative facilities. The structure features a modern reinforced concrete design that maximizes space efficiency within the central Tokyo location.

History

The tower was built in the 1970s as the university expanded its campus and modernized its infrastructure. The project followed updated building codes that permitted taller structures across Tokyo.

Culture

The tower functions as an educational center where students participate in academic activities and gather for university events throughout the academic year.

Practical

The building is easily reached by public transport with several train stations and bus stops nearby in the district. Visitors should note that interior access depends on university events and may be restricted during regular academic operations.
