The 10-storey apartment building on Fujimi Street – which translates to “Fuji view” – has 18 housing units ranging from $670,000 to nearly $1million.
A newly constructed residential building in suburban Tokyo will be pulled down before the apartments were due to be handed over to buyers, after incensed locals complained the structure blocked their views of Mt Fuji.
The company will compensate buyers’ costs and help arrange other housing for them if necessary, a spokesperson told Bloomberg News. Any financial loss on the soon-to-be-demolished building wasn’t disclosed.
