The name of the building following the renovation of the Hanshin Umeda Main Store has been decided as "Osaka Umeda Twin Towers South," and Hanshin Department Store, a tenant, will open partially on June 1st.


The partially opened building will be part of the new Hankyu Building, known as "Osaka Umeda Twin Towers South." By expanding its product lineup and offering lifestyle suggestions through various events, the department store aims to create a department store zone worthy of its prime central location. The grand opening of the entire shopping complex is scheduled for spring 2022. The Umeda Hankyu Building, which houses Hankyu Department Store (Hankyu Umeda Main Store), will be renamed "Osaka Umeda Twin Towers North," and the two adjacent buildings will be collectively known as "Osaka Umeda Twin Towers." The two high-rise towers were named to make them easily recognizable to visitors from outside Osaka and overseas.

Tenants

Already confirmed to be opening is Shake Shack®, the New York-based hamburger restaurant that will be making its Kansai debut. The store features large windows facing Osaka's main street, Midosuji, and its design concept, "Through the Window," aims to harmonize the vibrant Umeda streetscape seen from inside with the dynamic Shake Shack exterior.

Floors 11 to 38 will be an office tower, which will function upon the grand opening of the entire building under the concepts of "the connected heart of Umeda," "a building filled with hospitality services," and "a place to experience well-being." It will create spacious and abundant spaces, including a conference zone, sky lobby, and rooftop plaza.
