Gate Tower Building in Osaka, Japan

The Gate Tower Building in Osaka, Japan is
One of the most curious buildings.

The 5th, 6th and 7th floors of this 16-story office building is occupied by an express highway - passing right through the building. On the building's floor information board on the ground floor, the tenants for the three floors are listed as the Hanshin Expressway. You can’t alight there tough as the elevator skips from the 4th floor to straight to the 8th .

    #-Link-Snipped-# That is one interesting use of space. We are going to need it more often now than ever, thanks to all the concrete jungles forming in our surroundings.

    I found it really amazing that the highway does not make contact with the building, and a structure surrounding the highway keeps noise and vibration out.

    Do share more close-up pictures of structure.
