Company history

Mitsubishi Estate traces its origins to 1890, when Yanosuke Iwasaki purchased the Marunouchi area in Tokyo. Mitsubishi Ichigokan, the district’s first Western-style office building, opened in 1894. The company was established on May 7, 1937, as a spin-off from Mitsubishi Goshi Kaisha; following the postwar dissolution of the Mitsubishi group, three companies were merged in 1953 to form the postwar Mitsubishi Estate, whose shares were listed that year.[32][14]

From the 1970s, Mitsubishi Estate expanded development beyond Marunouchi, including overseas activity in New York and later the UK. It became a major participant in Yokohama’s Minato Mirai 21 redevelopment; Yokohama Landmark Tower, a centerpiece of the project, was completed in 1993. In 1990, the company invested in Rockefeller Group International. A new Marunouchi redevelopment initiative began in 1998, followed by completion of the rebuilt Marunouchi Building in 2002. In 2010, Mitsubishi Ichigokan was reconstructed on its original site and opened as a museum.[9]+4 [32]+6
