{{Nihongo|Tokyo Opera City Tower|東京オペラシティタワー|Tōkyō Opera Shiti Tawā}} is a skyscraper located in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan. Completed in 1996, it stands 234 metres (768 feet) high and has 54 floors. The tower is the third-tallest building in Shinjuku, Tokyo, and seventh-tallest in Tokyo. The closest train station to Opera City is Hatsudai.
