Akasaka Tower Residence

Akasaka Tower Residence, Residential skyscraper in Akasaka district, Japan.

Akasaka Tower Residence Top of the Hill is a 162 m residential tower at 2-chome, Akasaka, Minato, Tokyo, completed in July 2008 with 45 floors above ground, 3 below and 521 units. A two-storey grand lobby runs east to west through the ground floor, and shared facilities include guest rooms, a top lounge and a Japanese room modelled on the Kujo family tea room. About 2,600 m2 of the roughly 7,000 m2 site is planted, with a large pond on the east side surrounded by a mixed-woodland landscape using existing camphor trees and moso bamboo.

The site in Akasaka 2-chome was long occupied by the Kujō family, one of the five regent houses of the Japanese court; later the headquarters of Japan Unisys stood there. The tower was completed in July 2008, built by Takenaka Corporation, which used its Super Flex Wall method to thin perimeter beams and widen window openings. All 521 units sold out across three sales phases, at an average multiple of 8.4 applicants per unit.

The site was once the residence of the Kujō family, one of the five regent houses of the Japanese court, and later housed the headquarters of Japan Unisys. A Japanese-style room in the complex imitates the Kujō family's tea room, and a concierge is stationed in the building.

The tower stands in Akasaka 2-chome, a 4-minute walk from Akasaka Station on the Chiyoda Line and 5 minutes from Tameike-sanno Station on the Ginza and Namboku lines. The grounds are private residential property, but the roughly 2,600 m² of greenery around the eastern pond, with its camphor trees and bamboo grove, is laid out so neighbours can walk through it.

About 2,600 of the roughly 7,000 m² plot is green space, with a large pond on the east side surrounded by a grove that keeps existing camphor trees and moso bamboo.
