Nagoya TV Tower was constructed as part of a Nagoya City urban planning project to enable the broadcast of tourism information and television signals. It was designed with disaster prevention and urban scenery in mind by Waseda University Professor Tachu Naito, who later designed Sapporo TV Tower and Tokyo Tower. The Nagoya tower was built by a shipbuilding company by Kobe, Japan using approximately 1,000 tons of steel materials. Construction began September 29, 1953 and took approximately eight and a half months to reach completion on June 19, 1954. Today, Nagoya TV Tower is the premier landmark of Nagoya. It was registered as a Tangible Culture Property of Japan in 2005.
