Yodoyabashi Station West District Urban Redevelopment Association (Chairman: Koji Eguchi) and its participating members, Daiwa House Industry Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: 3-3-5 Umeda, Kita-ku, Osaka; President and Representative Director: Hirotsugu Otomo), Sumitomo Corporation (Headquarters: 2-3-2 Otemachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Shingo Ueno), and Kanden Realty & Development Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: 3-3-23 Nakanoshima, Kita-ku, Osaka; President and Representative Director: Emi Fukumoto), have announced that the grand opening date for "Yodoyabashi Gate Tower" (hereinafter referred to as "the Facility"), developed as the "Yodoyabashi Station West District Type 1 Urban Redevelopment Project," has been set for Thursday, July 9, 2026. Stores and business support facilities will open in the commercial zones on the first basement floor to the second floor, and in the public contribution complex zone on the 11th floor. Additionally, the rooftop garden on the 11th floor will be opened to the public. ## Facility Concept and Floor Configuration The Facility, leveraging its prime location at the gateway to Midosuji and adjacent to Nakanoshima, Osaka, was completed on December 15th last year as a large-scale mixed-use building primarily featuring offices, designed to create a sophisticated vibrancy befitting the area. By developing rich open spaces in the redevelopment area and along the waterfront, such as Okawa-cho Park, it aims to contribute to the regeneration and growth of the Osaka/Yodoyabashi area, as well as to the creation of a lively and green urban environment. The building is a 29-story above ground, 2-story basement mixed-use complex, with commercial zones on the first basement floor to the second floor, and office floors on the 3rd to 9th floors and 11th to 27th floors. The 11th floor, the top floor of the podium section, is a complex floor including a rooftop garden as a space open to the community and public contribution functions. Office tenants will begin moving in sequentially from May 2026. _Yodoyabashi Gate Tower Exterior_ ## Commercial Zone Space Design Concept The commercial zones on the first basement floor to the second floor adopt a spatial design that organically connects the city, people, and stores, with themes of "Water Surface (Minamo)," "City," and "Nature." The design incorporates light and curves to create natural flow. Furthermore, under the concept of "Toki-kagami (Time Mirror)," it aims to be a commercial space that reflects the changing cityscape and values of Yodoyabashi. ## Commercial Zone Overall Concept In Yodoyabashi, one of Osaka's leading office districts, the commercial zones aim to be more than just convenient facilities; they aspire to be a "commercial zone that elevates the status of workers." With "Yodoyabashi Status UP" as a keyword, a merchandising (MD) strategy has been constructed to propose new work styles, and a total of 29 unique stores are scheduled to open sequentially from July 2026. Leveraging its high convenience with direct connection to Yodoyabashi Station, the Facility will contribute to the further revitalization of the Yodoyabashi area as a new business hub integrating offices and commerce. _Yodoyabashi Gate Tower Exterior_ ## Commercial Zone (B1F) Overview ### Features As the main floor directly connected to Yodoyabashi Station, it concentrates easily accessible food and life support services. ### Interior Under the concept of [Water Flow] with "Water Surface (Minamo)" as its theme, the space employs a design that evokes the shimmer and floating sensation of water.
