Marunouchi continues to accelerate its evolution as "the most interactive city in the world." The Marunouchi Building, a local landmark that reemerged in 2002, has also played a part. If the period from the Maru Building's redevelopment to today was "a period for spreading diversity," the completion of the Shin-Marunouchi Building hints at a coming "period of coexisting diversity" in which various, diverse elements interact, stimulate, and deepen each other. Located in front of the Tokyo Station, the Shin-Marunouchi Building, along with the Marunouchi Building, will be the visual and functional "face of Marunouchi." With the birth of the new Shin-Marunouchi Building, Marunouchi has taken another giant step toward becoming "the most interactive city in the world."
