When completed, the Torch Tower designed by Mitsubishi Jisho Sekkei, Koji Matsuda, Sou Fujimoto, Yuko Nagayama, and Takanori Fukuoka, will hold a luxury hotel operated by the Dorchester Collection, a 2,000-capacity entertainment hall, offices, commercial, and retail outlets, and an observation deck
Integrating pedestrian areas the entertainment hall and retail spaces will be located within a base plinth rising from a single below-ground floor to a sixth above-ground floor.
As its name suggests, the Torch Tower "that lights up the world" in the words of the developers, is inspired by a lit torch. “That is, the light that symbolizes Japan to the whole world, the light that brightens one’s life for the future century, the light that gathers those who come together to build Japan’s future,” the developer comments.
The construction is part of Mitsubishi Estate's redevelopment project covering a 3.1-hectare area near Tokyo Station. The Japanese company has already built the 212-meter-high Tokiwabashi Tower in the area.
