Fukushima Osaka Japan

A High Traffic Building - Gate Tower, Japan

Jun 8 2011

This is a 16-story building in the heart of Osaka, Japan - but this isn't your average business tower, this one has a high traffic highway passing right through it. Many in Japan refer to it as the "beehive" due to its appearance and how busy it usually looks.

This is a very rare case, even for Japan since most of their highway system is laid out underground. This is also the first building in Japan to have this sort of design.
