Japan’s most expensive apartment building reaches completion in Roppongi
Last year, the rumored quiet sale of a 5.5 billion Yen (approx. 50 million USD) apartment in central Tokyo broke price records.

The 580 sqm (6,241 sq ft) apartment is one of two apartments occupying the top floor of the 7-story Park Mansion Hinokicho-Koen. The building was developed by Mitsui Fudosan Residential and construction was completed at the end of April 2017.Read more
