Time Out says

Toranomon-Azabudai is one of the most ambitious urban redevelopment projects in Tokyo. This huge undertaking is transforming a central district through cutting-edge architecture and sustainable technology, in an effort to reimagine a more holistic urban lifestyle that balances work, leisure and recreation.

The Azabudai Hills complex is the jewel of the crown here, as it combines the works of some of the world’s greatest architects. The three skyscrapers are designed by Pelli Clarke & Partners while the nature-inspired landscaping in the public and lower-level spaces is the creation of the studio run by British designer Thomas Heatherwick, which is responsible for the Coal Drops Yard in London.

It's also home to the new teamLab Borderless digital art museum, public art installations as well as numerous restaurants and retail stores.

What’s on

Spring at the Green

Soak up the sun this spring at the grassy central square within the Azabudai Hills complex while enjoying quality coffee, books, doughnuts and flowers. Held every weekend from March 22 to April 6, ‘Spring at the Garden’ celebrates the arrival of the warmer months with a gathering of over 20 cafés from across the country at the outdoor Azabudai Hills Arena. In addition to great coffee served every weekend by businesses like resident café %Arabica, you’ll be able to look forward to some literature: Azabudai Hills will host two mobile libraries on March 22 and set up a dedicated reading area on March 23. On March 29 and 30, expect to see stalls selling freshly made doughnuts, with five cafés and eight specialist doughnut shops set to descend on the venue. If you’re more inclined to appreciate the coming of spring with flowers, visit the Azabudai Hills Arena on April 5 or 6, when you’ll find the space decorated with tulips. The displayed flowers are then given away for free on April 6 from 2pm. Check the event website (Japanese) for more details
