The southern part of Ueno's venerable Matsuzakaya department store, closed back in 2014, made a grand comeback in November 2017. Floors one to six now house a branch of Parco, the next four storeys welcome a Toho Cinemas complex, and the upper floors (12 to 22) are occupied by for-lease offices. OK, not very exciting, but at least this mega-tower brings some action back to a neighbourhood that hasn't exactly been attracting many trend-conscious Tokyoites in recent years.
