List of tallest structures in Tokyo

The prefecture's tallest structures are within the 23 special wards, which comprise the area formerly incorporated as Tokyo City.

The tallest structure in the prefecture is Tokyo Skytree, a megatall lattice tower that rises 634 metres (2,080 feet), which was completed in 2012.

[7][8] The tallest building and third-tallest overall structure is the 325-metre-tall (1,068 feet) Azabudai Hills Mori JP Tower, completed in 2023 and being Tokyo's only supertall skyscraper.

[7] As of January 2025, 32 skyscrapers are under construction in the prefecture (150 m or taller), with 11 planned to rise higher than 200 metres, including a supertall skyscraper—the 385-metre-tall (1,263 feet) Torch Tower—which is set to become the new tallest building in Tokyo and Japan upon completion in 2028.

Starting with the construction of the Keio Plaza Hotel in 1971, the district is now home to 11 of Tokyo's 50 tallest skyscrapers.

[2] Several other skyscraper construction projects have been proposed for the near future, as Tokyo is experiencing a "once-in-a-century" redevelopment boom.

Freestanding towers, smokestacks, and other non-habitable or partially habitable structures are included for comparison purposes; however, they are not ranked.

This table lists buildings in Tokyo that have been demolished and once rose approximately 100 metres (330 feet) or taller, based on standard height measurement.

Visionary projects are excluded but can be found in the List of tallest structures envisioned for Tokyo.

A total of 32 skyscraper projects planned to rise at least 150 metres (490 feet) are underway in Tokyo, as of January 2025.

Those that are at least 193 metres tall without the aid of non-habitable structures are excluded from this list, as they are eligible for the "50 tallest skyscrapers in Tokyo" ranking.
