Introduction
The Marunouchi Building of Tokyo Station is the red-brick Western-style station house opened in 1914 and designed by Kingo Tatsuno — a face of modern Japanese architecture. After war damage and restoration, a 2012 rebuild revived its third and fourth domes and ornament; it is both a transit hub and Tokyo's 'front door', a cultural property.
