Nakameguro Atlas Tower, Residential skyscraper in Meguro-ku, Japan
Nakameguro Atlas Tower is a residential skyscraper in Tokyo's Meguro district with 45 floors housing apartments, offices, and shops. The building features a distinctive circular form that stands at a central location in the Kami-Meguro neighborhood.
Construction of this modern tower began in 2007 following designs by the architectural firm Nikken Sekkei and was completed in 2009. Its completion marked a step in Tokyo's ongoing vertical expansion and densification of the urban area.
The building shows how Tokyo residents live today, blending apartments with offices and shops so people can live and work in the same neighborhood. This mixed-use approach shapes daily life for those who call this district home.
The building is a two-minute walk from Naka-Meguro Station on the Hibiya Line, providing easy access to public transportation. Medical facilities, dining options, and shopping are available in the immediate surrounding area.
The building's circular architecture allows residents to enjoy expansive views across Tokyo, as the surrounding area has relatively few other tall structures. This location makes it a point with unusually open sight lines in a densely built neighborhood.
