At the top of both towers, on the 45th floors at 202 metres, expansive observation decks with cafeterias offer Tokyo's finest views. This section of Shinjuku lying west of the railway tracks, supports a number of other impressive skyscrapers, the nearby NS and Sumitomo buildings, and the Shinjuku Park Tower among them.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government commands a budget larger than most countries. Its admin base in the Kenzo Tange-designed twin-towered City Hall soars above the high-rise skyline of West Shinjuku as a monument to the cash-flush 80s. Observation galleries on the 45th floor of each tower have superseded Tokyo Tower as the superlative vantage point over the city, with Tokyo Bay & Mt Fuji to the west visible on clear days, especially in winter.
