NOA building - Wikipedia

The NOA building is a landmark 15-storey building located in Tokyo’s Azabu district in Minato. Designed by Japanese architect Seiichi Shirai, it was built in 1974.^[1] Facing Sakurada Street and Gaien-Higashi Street, the building is notable for its extensive use of brick stones and large entrance. It consists of a red-brick base of about 8 meters height and a copper sulfate shaped as an elliptical cylinder upper part with almost no windows (with only a full-length one on the 8th or 9th floor),^[2] and hosts the Embassy of Fiji.^[3] It has a height of 61.75 meters, with 15 floors above and 2 below ground.^[4]

The design of the building was entrusted to Seiichi Shirai by founder Yoshitsuru Nagao, whose real estate corporation was founded in 1969. The building was completed in 1974.^[5]
