Leading global alternative asset manager, Brookfield Asset Management, has announced the acquisition of a landmark office building, Dentsu office Tower, from a consortium of Japanese investors. This presents a rare opportunity for Brookfield to secure 100% ownership of a high-quality office asset in central Tokyo.

Located in the Shiodome area of Minato, Tokyo, the 213m skyscraper housed advertising and communications company Dentsu Group. It was completed in 2002, and comprises 1.3 million sq ft of net lettable area across 48 floors above ground, and five underground. There are also restaurants open to the public on the 47th and 48th floor, offering panoramic views.

“The Dentsu office tower in Tokyo is an iconic asset located in one of the world’s strongest office markets,” says Ankur Gupta, head of Asia Pacific & Middle East real estate and deputy real estate chief investment officer, Brookfield.

“Japan is one of the largest and most liquid real estate markets in the world, offering both scale and stability,” he adds.

This marks the expansion of Brookfield’s real estate portfolio in the Asia Pacific, especially in gateway markets such as Tokyo, Seoul, Sydney and Mumbai. The firm’s latest transaction was in December 2025, where they acquired a portfolio of eight logistics and industrial properties in Singapore for $338.1 million from ESR REIT.

“The investment aligns with our strategy of acquiring high-quality assets in irreplaceable locations and creating value through hands-on operational expertise,” Gupta says.
