The beautiful Tokyo Tower was designed by Tachū Naitō (1886 – 1970). Tachū Naitō is well-known for designing earthquake-resistant structures. When the Great Kanto Earthquake struck Tokyo in 1923, both the Industrial Bank of Japan building and the Kabuki theater building survived, whereas many other buildings around them were destroyed. Tachū Naitō was the one who designed both of these buildings.
