Toranomon Hills

Toranomon Hills is a multi-tower mixed-use complex by Mori Building anchored on Atago Avenue in Minato Ward, with approximately 25,000 square meters of retail distributed across three of its four completed towers. Classified A+ in the Malls.com framework, the property was developed in phases that extend the Mori Building experience-driven traffic model across a transit-integrated district: Mori Tower opened in 2014 with the Andaz Tokyo hotel on floors 47 to 52, Business Tower in 2020, Residential Tower in 2022, and Station Tower in 2023 connecting directly to the new Toranomon Hills Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line. The Glass Rock cultural pavilion designed by OMA opened with Station Tower as the property’s public-facing experience anchor.

The Toranomon district functioned as a strict office quarter before the 2014 Mori Tower opening, anchored by the Hotel Okura, Toranomon 45 office tower, and government ministry offices. The Toranomon Hills sequence of phased developments has shifted the district toward a mixed retail-business core, integrating with the broader Akasaka-Toranomon-Roppongi corridor. The Toranomon Hills Station opened in 2020 as the first new Tokyo Metro station in 50 years, connecting directly to Mori Tower and Station Tower. Surrounding Minato Ward ranks first nationally in household income, with weekday traffic dominated by approximately 14,000 office workers across the four Toranomon Hills towers plus the broader Toranomon office cluster.

The retail tenant base distributes across formats matched to each tower’s function. The T-Market food hall on Station Tower’s basement levels operates as the signature public space, concentrating regional Japanese specialty food and craft beverage tenants. Mori Tower retail concentrates business dining and the Andaz Tokyo restaurant program. Business Tower offers daily-frequency tenants supporting the office population. Hotel Toranomon Hills opened in Residential Tower in 2022 with its own retail floor. Total retail tenants across the complex number approximately 90.

For brands evaluating Tokyo’s emerging core districts, Toranomon Hills offers the Mori Building format applied to a transit-led mixed-use environment, with the new Hibiya Line station integration as the primary differentiator from Roppongi Hills three blocks south. Entry conditions are mid-tier compared to the established Roppongi cluster. Traffic patterns weight weekday office and hotel rather than weekend leisure. Toranomon Hills works for brands seeking integration with Tokyo’s post-2014 mixed-use evolution, business-hotel co-tenancy adjacency, and direct Metro Hibiya Line access between Tsukiji, Ginza, and Ebisu.
