The following is a ranking of the residential buildings across Japan with the largest average apartment size. The original list was published in Tokyo Kantei's [Apartment Data White Paper 1956-2006].

These apartments were built during Japan's real estate bubble in the 1980s and early 1990s - a time when developers could sell units for very high prices. In current times, Japanese developers focus on providing smaller units (eg. 60-80sqm) as these can be sold faster. It is now rare to see a new building where the majority of the units are over 150sqm.
