Waterras, Glass and steel skyscraper in Ochanomizu, Tokyo, Japan
Waterras is a 31-floor skyscraper in the Ochanomizu district with a distinctive glass facade. The building houses offices, apartments, retail spaces, and restaurants in a mixed-use development.
The building opened in 2011 and marked the transformation of the Ochanomizu district into a modern business and residential hub. This development was part of urban renewal in central Tokyo.
The building blends contemporary design with traditional Japanese principles that maximize daylight and organize space wisely. Visitors notice this balance between function and form in the public areas and common spaces.
The building connects directly to Ochanomizu Station through an underground passage, making access straightforward. Visitors can easily reach the retail spaces and restaurants without extra effort.
A rooftop garden on the building provides habitat for local birds and insects. This green space contributes to urban biodiversity in an unexpected location high above the city streets.
