Shin-Marunouchi Building
The Marunouchi area was once famed as the location of the Tokugawa shoguns' favoured daimyos' mansions. Walking past the front of this building takes one to the Imperial Gardens.
Designed by British firm Hopkins architects, the 38-storey Shin-Marounouchi building was completed in 2007 and cost £500 million. There is a six-storey podium with shops and restaurants (including a Luke Mangan Salt restaurant); above there are offices. It replaced a 1953 building of the same name and was completed around the same time as Tokyo Station's new incarnation. There is an underground connection. The owner is Mitsubishi Jisho Sekkei.
