The JR Shinagawa East Building, located in the East entrance area of Shinagawa Station which is a new urban business center for the 21^st century, celebrated its grand opening in March 2004. Having already benefited from the new Tokaido Shinkansen Shinagawa Station and large-scale urban renewal projects, Shinagawa has developed into a major business district. The new station building incorporates a harmonious mix of offices and stores at the East entrance of Shinagawa Station.
The new building is managed by EKIBIRU Development Co. TOKYO which already manages office buildings in such places as Ebisu and Meguro and has developed shopping centers under the name of "atré" in Ebisu, Oimachi, and other areas.

• The fourth floor is a calm area for relaxation reminiscent of an airport lounge or hotel lobby. The sophisticated mix of stores include the Grand Central Oyster Bar Tokyo, the second branch of the venerable restaurant at New York Grand Central Station. Its sophisticated atmosphere will never go out of fashion, with a high-quality taste and service to entertain guests.
• The third floor is the luxury food supermarket, Queen's Isetan, offering the finest-quality foods to local residents and employees of nearby offices.

Features of the Office Zone

• The second-floor entrance to the offices is directly connected to the ticket gate for the Shinkansen, and the East-West passageway gives direct access to other JR lines and the Keihin Kyuko Line. You can also take a train to either Haneda or Narita Airport without transferring. In every respect, this is an ideal business location.
• The office space is highly flexible, with 1,700 m² of rental space per floor, and rooms 16 m in depth and 2.8m-high ceilings without pillars.
• The office space is IT-compatible, and provided with an abundance of intelligent devices. Access to the building is controlled by JR East's Suica IC card. This card allows you to take JR East trains and use it as an ID card when entering and leaving the building.
• Tenants have already rented 16 entire floors, a total of 27,860 m².
