Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, Mixed-use skyscraper in Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan.
The Roppongi Hills Mori Tower is a 54-floor high-rise in Roppongi, a district of Tokyo in Japan. Standing 238 meters (781 feet) tall, the structure combines office space, shopping areas, restaurants, and viewing platforms under one roof.
Kohn Pedersen Fox and Mori Building Company finished construction of this tower in April 2003 after three years of building. The project was part of a larger urban development that reshaped the neighborhood.
The building houses a major art museum on one of its upper floors, where rotating exhibitions of contemporary artists from around the world are shown. Visitors come here to experience current trends in modern art in a setting that combines business life and leisure offerings.
Visitors can walk about five minutes from Roppongi Station on the Hibiya Line or about ten minutes from the Oedo Line to reach the entrance. Plan time for security checks before accessing the upper floors.
The open-air Sky Deck at about 270 metres above sea level closed indefinitely in September 2023 after a person fell from it; the indoor Tokyo City View on the 52nd floor, 250 metres above sea level with 11-metre glass walls, remains open. The tower's curved body plates were inspired by the layered construction of samurai armour, a detail designer William Pedersen worked to achieve.
