Sky Tree Tower: Already Impressive!

The new Tokyo Sky Tree Tower that is currently under construction is already an impressive structure.

The Sky Tree is being built for digital broadcasting as Tokyo Tower has been deemed too short for this purpose. The new tower is set to open in 2012.

Jim Ballard, who lives across the Sumida River from the Sky Tower's construction site, took the above photo on September 15. As you can see, much progress has already been made and it is already the tallest structure in Tokyo.

I am currently planning a vacation trip to Japan later this year and am looking forward to seeing the Sky Tree.
