Overview

[edit]

The 38 story JP Tower replaces the former central mail sorting facility ofJapan Post. A large portion of the original five story low rise frontage of theTokyo Central Post Office [ja], designed in 1931 byTetsuro Yoshida, was preserved and redeveloped as theKitte [ja] retail and dining facility.[2] JP Tower tenants include offices of theMitsubishi UFJ Financial Group.

The basement floor connects directly toTokyo Station, as well as other nearby buildings.

Intermediatheque

[edit]

The Intermediatheque, located in the renovated Central Post Office building on the 2nd and 3rd floor, serves as a museum of academic culture and a venue for workshops and seminars open to the general public.[3]

The Intermediatheque was launched as an academic-industry collaborative project with the support of theUniversity of Tokyo. The facility is jointly operated byJapan Post andThe University Museum, The University of Tokyo. Many of the furnishings and exhibits on display dating back to the Imperial University era.
