Century Park Tower, Residential skyscraper in Chuo ward, Tokyo, Japan.
Century Park Tower is a residential high-rise in Chuo ward, Tokyo, standing 180 meters tall across 54 floors with approximately 756 apartments inside. The building uses steel-reinforced concrete construction to support its substantial weight and provide stability.
The tower was completed in 1999 as part of the Okawabata River City 21 development project. This construction marked an important phase in Tokyo's expansion into a modern mixed-use metropolitan area.
The residential complex reflects Japanese architectural principles of maximizing space through vertical construction while maintaining community living spaces.
The building sits near Tsukishima Station on the Yurakucho Line, providing convenient public transport access. It offers 583 parking spaces and ten elevators distributed across different sections to serve the various floors efficiently.
The structure uses concrete-filled steel tube columns, a specialized Japanese construction system for earthquake resistance. This technique allows the building to remain stable during seismic activity while maximizing interior living space.
