New Rental Apartment Complex in Arakawa

Overview

On December 2025, List Development Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the larger List Co., Ltd., will complete its latest project: RETERRACE MINOWA WEST. This new rental apartment complex is situated in Arakawa Ward, specifically in the Higashi-Nippori area, providing a beautifully designed living space just three minutes’ walk from the Minowa Station on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line.

Development Background

List Development is guided by the corporate statement, “Realizing the 'true' that the world can be proud of, starting from here.” Their portfolio includes the development of condominiums and rental apartments in the metropolitan area, as well as hotels and branded residences in urban and resort areas.

The Higashi-Nippori area is characterized by a tranquil residential environment filled with single-family homes and small to medium-sized apartment buildings. With excellent access to major areas, including Ueno in just two stations and direct access to Ginza in about 20 minutes, this location promises convenient urban living.

Market surveys conducted in the area revealed stable demand for both rental and owner-occupied apartments, particularly highlighting the strong rental demand and stable pricing. As a response to these market dynamics, RETERRACE MINOWA WEST has been designed to cater to varying needs with a mix of apartments: 20 units of 1DK for singles and 20 units of 3LDK for families.

Design and Architecture

The architectural design skillfully utilizes the layout of the lot, which has three sides facing the streets. The southern side, which faces the station, features a thoughtfully planned entrance for pedestrians, while the eastern and northern facades accommodate parking, ensuring the safety and comfort of residents with no vehicle-pedestrian overlap.

In terms of aesthetics, the building stands out with its modern color scheme of white and black, contrasting the predominantly darker tones of the neighboring medium-sized buildings. The facade offers a tactile quality, featuring a distinctive design that aims for high visual appeal, comparable to condominium standards despite being a rental property.

Embracing Local Craftsmanship

In an effort to express the region's unique cultural heritage, the entrance of the complex showcases a forged metal sculpture created by a local craftsman, representing the traditional art of kankin (forging). This initiative aims to enrich the community and integrate cultural elements into the living space.
