I actually really liked Roppongi Hills the last time my wife and I went to Tokyo :)

We went to the aquarium, the art museum and the sky lobby. The art museum was having an exhibit by Le Corbusier, if I remember right.

Roppongi hills represents excessiveness in its purest form, and companies that take up the office space there are simply reflecting their deeply embedded policies of greed. Business, for them,

My advice is to get away from roppongi hills,the vibe there is so bad,and many bad things have happened there...The bar downstairs HEARTLAND has had some strange stories of people going missing after drinking there..I lived there for awhile and got cold chills everytime i pass that building.

Roppongi hills represents excessiveness in its purest form, and companies that take up the office space there are simply reflecting their deeply embedded policies of greed. Business, for them, has become a luxury, and financial doom was just lurking around the corner waiting to trip them up.

More modest firms that take up cheaper office space are displaying logical business-sense.

This issue is about wanton expenses, not imaginary demons.

There are old graveyards everywhere around Tokyo, and not to mention the thousands who died in fires and wars in central Tokyo. Along that line of reasoning, everywhere in Tokyo is cursed.

Only like 6 companies went bust in Roppongi Hills in the last 5 years. That's not a large percentage.

We're also in Japan, hence 666 and 13 doesn't work.

Is the Roppongi area cursed, or perhaps do some companies who set up office there curse themselves?

I have worked for a few companies who overreached themselves. They thought themselves more successful than they actually were, and rented office space that was much too expensive. Of course high rent wouldn't affect a huge company like Lehman, but it might be a sign of hubris.

I think perhaps that companies, like people, need to be humble and introspective.

I've heard the stories of it being cursed but I didn't feel anything. I think it is a little strangely designed, but I like that. At one point, we found ourselves lost in this winding corridor under the complex that felt like a dungeon. But I thought it was cool! I guess I'm just that kind of person. I might not like working there, though; too crowded.
