39-yr old apartment building near Hamamatsucho to be redeveloped
The home owners association of an old apartment block in Tokyo’s bay front area have voted in favor of redevelopment, with the former 14-storey building to be replaced by a 32-storey apartment tower. The former Itohpia Hamarikyu apartment building was built in 1979 and is a 5 minute walk east of Hamamatsucho Station in Tokyo’s Minato Ward. The 14-story building contains 328 apartments and sits on a 2,820 sqm block of land fronting onto an expressway.
