The Fuji Television building is one of the most dramatic sights sailing out of Tokyo Bay. It comprises a media tower and an office tower connected by three pedestrian bridges which help give it the strength required in this earthquake prone region. The spherical observation platform was built on the seventh level and then raised by hydraulic jacks to the 25th level. Completed in 1997, the building is 123.45 metres tall and has 142,800 square metres of floor space.
