International hub and global business center realized through integrated urban development
Toranomon Hills Business Tower follows Toranomon Hills Mori Tower as the second project in the everexpanding and evolving Toranomon Hills complex. Eventually, Toranomon Hills will expand to a size of 7.5ha
and total floor space of 800,000m² through completion of Toranomon Hills Residential Tower (plannedcompletion by January 2021) and Toranomon Hills Station Tower (tentative name; planned completion by July2023), the latter to be integrated with the new Toranomon Hills Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Subway
Line in the future. The area will become a mixed-use urban complex with an impact comparable to that ofMori Building’s Roppongi Hills and integrated with local transportation infrastructure. The Toranomon Hills
complex—four towers encompassing high-quality offices, residences, hotels, retail facilities, incubation center,transportation facilities and green space—will become a true international hub and global business center
generating a steady stream of new business and innovation, and thereby enhancing the magnetism of Tokyo
as a great international city.

6Toranomon Hills Residential Tower (planned completion by January 2021)
The 54-story Toranomon Hills Residential Tower has been designed to harmonize with Toranomon Hills
Business Tower and Toranomon Hills Mori Tower. As a MORI LIVING-branded high-class residence, the tower
will offer 550 residential units constructed with sophisticated Japanese craftsmanship and careful attention todetail. The Residential Tower will also include a members-only spa and 1,000m² of practical retail facilities on
its lower levels. The Mori Tower and Business Tower will be easily accessible via pedestrian walkways.
Residents will enjoy highly convenient and rewarding lifestyles afforded by the dynamic Toranomon Hills
complex.

Toranomon Hills Station Tower (tentative name; planned completion by July 2023)
Toranomon Hills Station Tower will be fully integrated with the new Toranomon Hills Station on the Tokyo
Metro Hibiya Line, which opened in June 2020. A plaza connected to the station and a pedestrian deck crossing
over Sakurada-dori Avenue will enhance the multilayer pedestrian network supporting this new transportation
hub. By being integrated with the bus terminal of the Business Tower, a new transportation hub for urban
areas are created. The building will be a 265m, 49-story skyscraper that amply accommodates 3,300m² ofoffice space, retail facilities integrated with the aforementioned plaza and a world-class hotel. The top floor—a multifunctional complex for forums, galleries and restaurants equipped to handle diverse business events—
is expected to become a new focal point for business and innovation.
