As more and more companies choose environmentally friendly offices, large-scale development, including office buildings, is increasingly gaining international certification, which is "certified" as environmentally friendly real estate.
In the Toranomon / Azabudai area of Minato-ku, Tokyo, a redevelopment project is underway to build a high-rise building with offices and houses on more than 8 hectares, which is 1.7 times the size of Tokyo Dome, with the aim of opening again next year.
In this redevelopment project, we have obtained the highest-ranked preliminary certification of "LEED", one of the most popular environmental certification systems for real estate in the world.
In addition to supplying electricity in the area with renewable energy, it was praised for its consideration for the protection of the ecosystem by setting up a large plaza and greening the rooftop of the building. ..
Masahiro Takeda, chief of Mori Building, a real estate giant that handles this business, said, "Since the government has declared carbon neutral in 2050, we have received inquiries from companies. We would like to accelerate our environmental efforts." ..
In the redevelopment project in Tokyo, "Toranomon Hills Area" also obtained the highest-ranked preliminary certification of the same environmental certification system, and "HARUMI FLAG", which is maintained on the site of the Olympic Village in the Tokyo Games, also obtained the second-ranked preliminary certification. There is a growing movement to acquire international certification that is “certified” for environmentally friendly real estate.
