The Arasaka American Division Headquarters (more commonly known as the Arasaka Tower) is a massive skyscraper located in Corpo Plaza, Night City. During its different iterations, it usually was the building that dominated the skyline of the city and often being its most secure location. By 2077, the new tower not only was the tallest building in Night City, but it had also become a symbol of its neomilitaristic skyline.

1990s - 2013
The original Arasaka Tower was the headquarters for the American division of the Arasaka Corporation. Despite having multiple regional offices across America, the corporation had a huge investment in the building stages of Night City, making it the head of the corporation's operations in the whole continent. Toshiro Harada was the director of Arasaka America and had his office in this tower.

The office building was eventually replaced by a new one after the 2013 assault, which destroyed much of it.

2013 - 2023
Situated in Night City's Corporate Center - in the Corporate Plaza - the newly built Arasaka Tower replaced the previous building destroyed in 2013. At 130 stories, it was the tallest building in Night City, and was clearly visible from most areas in a clear weather.

The towers had a featureless surface in black glass and steel. The Arasaka logo and name were on a black marble plaque that stood by the walkway to the main entrance. There were heliports and AV-4 pads on both tower roofs, and a restricted subterranean parking and loading area. The only section opened to the public was the reception area in the ground floor, and no public facilities were found anywhere in the building. On the other hand, private companies had an arrange of facilities - including cafeterias, trauma centers, stores, recreatives and sleeping quarters.

All building accesses were tightly controlled. Armed security troops patrolled the roofs, ground, parking area, and building interiors 24 hours a day. No unauthorized vehicles were permitted on the roofs, or in any subterranean areas. Authorization was to be given only if a person had an appointment, appeared on a traffic/commercial manifest or schedule, or was cleared by someone within the company. Similar conditions applied to people who wished to proceed beyond the reception area.

The Arasaka Plaza, a small park surrounding the building, was open to the public, but corporate security patrolled it daily.

Before 2020, after Toshiro was killed in the riot of 2013, Yoru Tomobiki became the director of Arasaka America and had his office in this tower.

During the Fourth Corporate War, Kei Arasaka used this building as the main operations center on the war effort against Militech. However, after losing support from the European division and the Arasaka assets from Japan, the megacorporation was on the losing side. The Arasaka Secure Database was located beneath the complex. The final blow was a mini-nuke that was placed in the HQ by a Militech team, which completely destroyed the Arasaka Towers, bringing about the Night City Holocaust. Arasaka was then kicked out of the USA, and the American division returned to their homeland, Japan.

2070 - 2077
The Arasaka Tower was rebuilt in 2070 after the corporation was officially welcomed back to Night City after the Unification War. At a height of 620m, the tower had 140 floors.

A memorial dedicated to the victims of the bombing of the original twin towers was also constructed adjacent to the new structure. The memorial featured a preserved section of the ruins of the second tower.

There are bathrooms as well as hallways that lead to other rooms closed off. A large screen over the elevators displays constant achievements from the Arasaka Corporation. Within the lobby an announcer is heard talking of Arasaka propaganda in Japanese. Holographic Japanese plants with a red glow can be seen accompanying the couches.
