Nagoya Station and Sakae are two of the most popular downtown areas in Nagoya, but Sakae is currently lagging behind Nagoya Station, which is being revitalized through remarkable redevelopment.
One reason is that Sakae is in the process of demolishing and rebuilding many of its aging buildings, resulting in fewer commercial facilities and stores overall, and therefore attracting fewer customers.
One of the buildings under reconstruction is the Chunichi Building.
Built in 1966, it has long been a familiar building with a retro Nagoya feel, and will have its grand opening in the spring of 2024.
The building complex will consist of stores and restaurants from the basement to fifth and seventh floors, a hotel, hall, rooftop plaza, and offices.
The rooftop plaza on the 7th floor will inevitably become a popular spot for relaxation and a place to overlook the Sakae cityscape.
