Main
building
of
Mainichi
Shimbun.
The
photo
was
taken
when
I
used
to
decorate
the
building
with
all
flags.
Although
it
may
not
be
so
famous
for
the
general
public,
it
is
also
famous
as
a
location
for
drama,
and
the
front
entrance
and
rooftop
overlooking
the
skyscrapers
of
the
Imperial
Palace
and
Otemachi
appear
in
the
drama.
It's
been
over
50
years
old,
but
it's
a
very
modern
and
beautiful
architecture
that
doesn't
feel
like
it.
Designed
by
Shoji
Hayashi,
a
famous
architect,
is
the
only
post-war
office
building
to
be
selected
as
one
of
the
"20
Best
Japanese
Modern
Architecture"
sponsored
by
the
Architectural
Institute
of
Japan.
There
are
many
popular
(a
little
retro)
shops
on
B1
and
1F,
and
it
is
lively
at
lunch
time.

毎日新聞の本社ビルです。写真は以前に万国旗でビルをデコレーションしていたときのものです。
一般の方にはあまり有名でないビルかもしれませんが、ドラマのロケ地としても有名で、正面エントランスや皇居と大手町の高層ビル群を見渡せる屋上などがドラマの中で登場しています。
築50年以上になりますが、それを感じさせないとても現代的で美しい建築です。設計は林昌二氏という有名な建築家で、日本建築学会が主催した「日本の近代建築20選」に戦後オフィスビルとして唯一選ばれています。
B1,
1Fは大衆的な(ちょっとレトロな)お店も多くて、ランチタイムに賑わいます。
