Full Tang

What do you think about it, Kenzo Tange?

Wireless communication systems require the installation of antennas. Tall buildings are the most suitable places for this purpose, their managers usually decide to install such equipment on the roofs. This way the antennas do not interfere with the architecture of the buildings, are less visible.

It is rare to place antennas on the facades, especially in the case of prestigious buildings designed by famous architects.
The building shown in the pictures below is one of the exceptions. What is this building? Where is it? Why Kenzo Tange should issue an opinion on this subject?

What is this building? Where is it? Why Kenzo Tange should issue an opinion on this subject? Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building. City hall of Tokyo, the capital of Japan. The building with the height of 243 m had been the highest one in Tokyo from 1991 to 2006, the year when it was "outgrown" by Tokyo Midtown (248 m).
The building was designed by renowned Japanese architect Kenzo Tange. Some people associate the architecture of Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building with a Gothic cathedral, others think it is a giant representation of a microprocessor.
Unfortunately, we will not be able to get the opinion of Kenzo Tange on the antennas on the facade - he died in 2005.

Kenzo Tange was a Japanese architect and winner of the 1987 Pritzker Prize for architecture. He was one of the most significant architects of the 20th century, combining traditional Japanese styles with modernism. Kenzo Tange was also an influential protagonist of the movement structuralism. He said: "It was, I believe, around 1959 or at the beginning of the sixties that I began to think about what I was later to call structuralism", (cited in Plan 2/1982, Amsterdam).

Legend of the Wu-Tang Clan: Wu-Tang Clan's... $7.99 Full title: Legend of the Wu-Tang Clan: Wu-Tang Clan's Greatest Hits.Wu-Tang Clan records have always reflected the kaleidoscopic nature of the group itself, which consists of nine members, each with at least three identities of their own. It's no surprise, then, that Wu-Tang albums vibrate with the energy of a raucous crowd, as unpredictable rhymes gust back and forth. The collective of NYC-area rappers banded together as a unit to most effectively launch solo records, with 1993's ENTER THE WU-TANG (36 CHAMBERS) acting as the springboard. While many classic albums have emerged from the pact (including Method Man's TICAL and Ghostface Killah's SUPREME CLIENTELE), when the group comes together, something wonderfully chaotic ensues.Fittingly, Wu-Tang Clan's first hits record, LEGEND OF THE WU-TANG, has a wandering nature, with remixes thrown in haphazardly, adding to the anything-can-happen feel always surrounding the outfit. The album opens with the three tracks that began its reign, "C.R.E.A.M.," "Method Man," and "Protect Ya Neck," the latter two intriguingly reworked. Elsewhere, two of the unit's finest mid-career singles--"Triumph" and "Gravel Pit"--are placed back-to-back. As a whole, the collection is a reminder of the excitement and genius that has made the group so enduring.
