One of the major factors is that the building is aging in the area from 39 to 58 years old. By making a joint project with multiple landowners, it is possible to reduce the project cost burdened by each landowner and to increase the value of the building and space, and to increase the regional value that leads to business profits.

The newly rebuilt building will be maintained as a complex facility with 2 floors below ground and 23 floors above ground. The lower floors of the 1st to 4th floors are equipped with commercial functions and open spaces to create a busy and relaxing space on the road surface, and the 5th to 23rd floors are offices (total leased area approximately 249,25 square meters). Construction will start, including dismantling, in FY2020 after the Olympics, and the opening is scheduled for FY2024.

こうした課題を解決するため、まず渋谷ヒカリエ3階から同ビル2階に歩行者デッキが伸び、さらに青山通り側では同ビル2階から渋谷クロスタワーまで、既存の「金王坂下歩道橋」でつながる。渋谷駅から渋谷ヒカリエを抜け、同ビル内の屋内広場（吹き抜け空間）を経て渋谷クロスタワーまで、坂道の高低差を意識せずにスムーズな歩行を実現する。歩行者デッキは屋根付きのため、雨の日でも濡れずに移動が可能となるという。
