Über den Ort

The commercial skyscraper anchors the Sunshine City complex in Ikebukuro, linking high-density office floors with extensive retail and transit corridors.

The skyscraper adjoins the Sunshine City complex in the Ikebukuro district of Toshima. Upon completion, the structure became the tallest building in Asia, retaining that continental record before later yielding it to Seoul. The tower also maintained the height record for Tokyo and all of Japan until the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building arrived. Mitsubishi Estate owns the landmark property.

Vertical transit was central to the design. Mitsubishi Electric built the main elevator bank, which operated as the fastest elevator system in the world until the Yokohama Landmark Tower debuted. Within the commercial complex, office tenants share infrastructure with retail floors and convention halls. Long-term workers navigate continuous commuter streams through Ikebukuro, trading quiet streets for central transit connections.
