Meiji University Liberty Tower, University skyscraper in Surugadai, Japan

The Liberty Tower reaches 119 meters with 23 floors above ground and 3 below ground, forming the central structure of Meiji University's Surugadai Campus.

The tower opened in September 1998 as part of Meiji University's 120th anniversary celebration, replacing older campus buildings through an extensive redevelopment project.

The building incorporates elements from the former Memorial Hall, including the relocated dome design, relief work, and stained glass in the Kishimoto Tatsuo Hall.

The structure accommodates over 8,000 people, with floors 1 through 16 dedicated to humanities departments and floors 19 through 22 housing graduate school facilities.

The Shikon Hall displays a ceramic mural titled 'Ode to Humanity' created by ceramicist Yasunari Matsui, adding artistic value to the educational environment.
