からのご挨拶A greeting from SUZUKI Noritake

Hello everyone, my name is SUZUKI Noritake. The TOKYO SKYTREE is the world's tallest radio tower. How is a Tower that stands 634 meters tall built? What materials are used, where do they come from, and who is involved and how? I will be sharing glimpses of the construction site that I have seen up close, little by little. I would be very happy if, with each installment, you all feel a greater sense of familiarity with the Tower and more people come to feel that it is "our Skytree." I hope you will enjoy this long series.
