I already posted about this location here (http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showpost.php?p=70192685&postcount=84), it's the redevelopment of the old offices next to the Kouseinenkin-Kaikan concert hall that itself is undergoing a renovation. Many people on the internet expected a very tall, higher then 200m tower on this location. Therefor the 190m is a disappointment for some, I also hoped for it to be a bit taller. But it will be another high tower going U/C, Osaka is really going up with so many towers U/C.

stats:
height: 189.55m
floors: 53
function: residential
status: plan
start: April 2012
completion: March 2015

Location:
Shinmachi 1-chome, Nishi-ku, Osaka

The website was also updated, with info on the structural innovations of the tower.
http://www.ts-tower.com/index.html


It will be one of the 1st towers in Japan that will have a solid core within the concrete frame.

The core is connected with the frame with dampers, making the building sway less in the case of a eartquake or a typhoon. It's the same method that is already used on the Tokyo Sky Tree, this is the 1st building that will have this system.

I always wondered why Japanese buildings never had concrete cores like the rest of Asia. Hopefully this will awllow taller buildings in the future.
p.s. I like Japanese girls ;)

I know that park very well from standing in the goods line before the 1st concert I ever attended in Japan. The Berryz Kobo Concert Tour 2007 Natsu ~Welcome! Berryz Kyouden~ on Miyabi's birthday, it was epic.

Long time since I've been to the site, so I decided to go and check the progress. But how about that, the tower is growing now ;).

And I thought this one was iconic :). A rest of the samurai ;). They work really hard indeed.

I's growing indeed. :)


I just hope that the tower won't covered up for the whole length during the construction.
