Tokyo – Odaiba: Fuji Television Head Office Building


Image by wallyg
The Fuji Television Head Office Building (フジテレビ本社ビル), also known as the Fuji TV Building or the Fuji Sankei Group Headquarters, at 2-4-8 Daiba, opened on March 10, 1997 as the headquarters of Fuji Television (フジテレビ), one of Japan’s private nationwide TV stations, replacing their old headquarters in Kawadacho, Shinjuku. The 25-floor, 123-meter tall structural expressionist skyscraper was designed in the structural expressionist style by Kenzo Tange of Tange Associates.

The innovative design divides the building space into an office tower and a media tower linked by three enclosed pedestrian bridges, which strengthen the structure and make it highly earthquake resistant. Next to the media tower is a spherical observation platform, which weighs a colossal 1,200 tons. With a diameter of 32-meters, it was built on the roof of the 7th floor and then raised to the 25th floor with a hydraulic jack.

Ten studios fill the inside of the building. Tickets for a studio tour, which may not be of great interest to non Japanese, are available from the booth at the top of the elevator.
