Mitsubishi Estate has been a leading urban developer for over 130 years focusing on areas around Otemachi, Marunouchi and Yurakucho, making diverse efforts to create a prosperous city that constantly leads the way forward. Collaboration with the arts is one of these efforts. Following ongoing projects such as the Marunouchi Street Gallery, launched in 1972, and the Art Award Tokyo Marunouchi, launched in 2007 and celebrating its 20th edition in 2026, the Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum was opened in 2010. In recent years, this district has expanded its scope to become a “city with artists.” Believing in the importance of co-creation with artists, it aims to transform the business district into a place where people with diverse perspectives and talents come together to create new value.
