東京千代田區四年後會有新酒店落成


Recently the NHK News on-line reported the following:

「赤プリ」の愛称で親しまれた東京都心にある高さおよそ140メートルの超高層ホテルの解体工事が本格的に始まり、13日、40階建てのビルが、2階分、およそ6メートル小さくなりました。

東京・千代田区にあるかつての「赤坂プリンスホテル」は、去年3月、閉館となり、昭和58年に開業した高さおよそ140メートル、地上40階建ての新館の解体が今年6月から進められています。
高級レストランなどがあった最上階と、スイートルームなどがあった39階は、作業に伴う粉じんが外に出ないよう囲いで覆われ、壁や柱などが取り壊されて吹き抜けになっていて、合わせて15本のジャッキで支えられた状態になっていました。
13日はこのジャッキを調節し、バランスを崩さないようコンピューター制御で少しずつ下げていく作業が行われました。
作業が進むと、下の階の窓が徐々に囲いの影に隠れていく様子が確認され、最終的に、2階分、およそ6メートル小さくなりました。
今回は、国内では、これまでで最も高いビルの解体工事だということです。
解体は、今後も2階分ずつ進められ、来年5月ごろには、「赤プリ」の象徴だった新館が姿を消すことになります。
跡地には、ホテルやオフィスなどが入る高さ180メートルのビルと、高さ90メートルのマンションが建設され、4年後の平成28年に完成することになっています。

The formal demolition work of the skyscraper hotel that had a height of about 140 meters located in the center of Tokyo and being called by the lovely nickname "Red Puri" had started, and on the 13th this building of 40 stories had been reduced into about 6 meters in the second stage of demolition.

The "Akasaka Prince Hotel" in Chiyoda District, Tokyo was closed in March last year, and demolition proceeded from June this year. It was  about 140 meters in height and was opened in Showa 58 as a new building that had 40-story above the ground.

The high class restaurant etc. at the top floor together with other 39 floors of suite etc. were covered in an enclosure so that the particles accompanying the work would not fly out; walls and pillars etc. were pulled down, turning the building into a hollow structure in a state supported by 15 jacks in total.

On the 13th, these jacks were adjusted and work was carried out to lower them little by little using computer control so that the balance would not be lost.

As the work progressed, it could be noted that the images of the windows at the lower stories were hidden gradually in the surrounding shadows, and finally the building was reduced into about 6 meters in the second stage.

I was said that it was the demolition work of the highest building in the country up to now.

The second stage of the demolition would continue to proceed, and this building which was a symbol of "Red Puri" when was new would disappear by May next year.

At this site a building of 180 meters in height with a hotel and offices etc. and a 90-meter-high apartment would be built, and all would be completed in Heisei 28, four years from now.

Probably the demolition and construction work would help the economy in generating work for the construction workers.
