Abenobashi Terminal Building Tower 阿部野橋ターミナルビル タワー館
http://i47.tinypic.com/261ks61.jpg Abenobashi Terminal Building Complex Project Abeno district, is where the Abenobashi Terminal Building stands, a terminal with railways such as Kintetsu and JR and the subway (Midosuji and Tanimachi lines) entering into the district , and boasting 800,000 passengers who get on and off each day. Within the premises of our largest scale terminal, we plan to build a complex building called “Tower Annex” (tentative name) the highest-rise building of its kind in Japan-with 62 stories above the ground and 6 underground stories, comprising approximately 210,000m2 of total floor area and approximately 300m high. The facility consists of a train station, department store, offices, hotel, art museum and observatory. It is a big project combining our four core businesses including railway, retail, real estate and hotel & leisure facilities. We aim to complete the project in the spring of 2014. Height: 300m Floors: 62 Use: Department store, office, hotel, museum Architect: César Pelli Construction start: January 2010 Completion date: March 2014 Location: http://maps.google.co.jp/maps?f=q&so...,0.008905&z=17 http://i47.tinypic.com/316966r.jpg http://i46.tinypic.com/6yp98m.jpg http://i45.tinypic.com/abje68.jpg |

Wow I actually love this design! Wish we were getting this in the U.S. Looks like it would fit in nicely in New York or Chicago. Can't wait for more construction updates. The renderings are beautiful. :)
|
Japan finally gets a supertall (building, not counting communication towers)
|
It's just too bad that they are building it in Abeno, far away from Osaka's main cluster in Umeda.
|
I don't remember my Osaka geography, last time I was there was in '85! But the rendering shows it isn't in the city center area.

Wow what a beast! I like it!
|
It's not everyday that we hear about a supertall for Japan (excepting those fantastic visionary ideas).
|
stunning. i assumed the design to be SOM over pelli.
|
Why is Japan lacking in supertalls? Do the earthquake regulations make them too expensive?
Or is it the general bureaucracy that stops all large parcel projects? |
Love it! A tall building that is not being built just to be tall - it is ALL BUILDING (vs. spires, tiny floors, etc.). It does not look tall because it has such huge floor plates.
|
Thats really kewl. I like the design. Very Nice...
:tup: |
Not a true supertall in the 1,000 foot range, but still tall for Japan.
|
Bad ass. I love so much of the stuff that is built in Japan.

there is a similar design in ChongQing...!!!
|
I'm amazed at the complexity of the project. What's lacking is the residences, otherwise, this building has everything (museum !)
It'll be interesting to watch the flow. |
very cool and green tower that has it all will be nice to see it come up
