News Release

Tokyu Land Corporation (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Hiroaki Hoshino; hereinafter "Tokyu Land") hereby announces that it has commenced development of “BRANZ Tower Osaka Umeda,” (hereinafter “Property”), which will serve as the flagship property of the “BRANZ” environmentally advanced condominium series in the Kansai area. The Property, which will be developed in Kita Ward, Osaka City, will be the first super high-rise property in Japan to obtain BELS certification for “ZEH-M Ready.”
Located in the Umeda area, one of western Japan’s largest commercial and office districts, the Property will be a newly built condominium tower with a total of 256 units. One of Osaka Prefecture’s largest draws with a full range of commercial facilities, department stores, underground shopping arcades and other facilities that cater to the needs of people of all ages, the Umeda area will also host an environment for “leisure” and “relaxation” in addition to “work” and “living” through multiple ongoing redevelopment projects, making it continue to develop into an even more vibrant area.
Additionally, the Umeda area hosts six stations spanning ten railway lines that connect the main railways in the Kansai region, and also offers favorable access to Kansai International Airport and Osaka International Airport (Itami Airport). The Naniwasuji Line, which will lead to improved access to Shin-Osaka Station, is scheduled to open in Spring 2031. Tokyu Land will continue to promote its business in the Umeda area, which is attracting attention for its constantly-evolving urban functions, based on the concept of “an environmentally advanced tower residence conducive to permanent residence.”
*1: “BRANZ Tower Osaka Umeda” is the first super high-rise condominium (20 or more above-ground floors) in Japan to adopt ZEH-M Ready (based on the issuance of an evaluation certificate under the Building-Housing Energy-efficiency Labeling System (BELS)).
