Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd.

Tokyo, Japan, June 22, 2018 - Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd., a leading global real estate company headquartered in Tokyo, announced today that it had started construction of Nagoya Mitsui Building North Building (tentative name) (hereinafter “the project”), a project underway in 4-chome Meieki, Nakamura-ku, Nagoya, Aichi Prefecture. The project is scheduled for completion on January 31, 2021.

The project is located in Meieki, Nagoya’s largest business district. It is in a sought-after location, four minutes on foot via underground walkway from Nagoya Station.

The building is 20 floors above and two floors below ground with a total floor area of 312,153.4 ft² (29,000 m²). The 1st to 3rd floors will be commercial facilities and the 5th to 19th floors will be offices equipped with state-of-the-art facilities.

The office entrance faces Nishikidori, a business street, and the frontage will have the distinctive quality worthy of a new landmark outside Nagoya Station. The commercial facilities will not only be facing a high-end shopping street full of luxury brand stores on the road to the station, but also link directly to the underground mall area by escalator.

An exclusive roof garden will be provided where office workers can relax. The garden aims to create a “third space” (a concept of space that is neither home nor office)--an open, airy working environment surrounded by greenery in the city center, which will help tenant companies’ working style reforms.
