The Shinjuku Park Tower (新宿パークタワー, Shinjuku Pāku Tawā) is the second-tallest building in Shinjuku, Tokyo.
History
It was designed by Kenzo Tange and completed in 1994. The building is owned and managed by Tokyo Gas Urban Development, a subsidiary of Tokyo Gas,[2] and was constructed on the site of a decommissioned gas storage facility. Tokyo Gas operates a regional cooling center on-site, which provides heating and cooling to the high-rise district of Nishi-Shinjuku, and supplies electricity to the adjacent Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building.[3] The hotel featured prominently in Academy Award-winning film Lost in Translation.[4]
