The Semba Center Building, constructed in conjunction with the Osaka World Exposition in 1970, consists of ten buildings, each approximately 1,000 meters long, running east to west. It is flanked by urban transportation infrastructure, with the Chuo Subway Line underground, Chuo Boulevard above ground, and the Chikko-Fukae Municipal Road and Hanshin Expressway above. This project was planned to renovate the building into an attractive building that connects the two areas, as it is located between Umeda and Namba.
