The Tokiwamatsu district is a historically significant and quiet residential area, formerly part of the Satsuma Domain's Shimazu family estate and later home to an imperial villa. The area's name originates from a prized "Tokiwa pine" tree, a theme carried into the condominium's branding. The location provides excellent access, with Omotesando Station (Ginza, Chiyoda, and Hanzomon Lines) a 13-minute walk, Shibuya Station (Tokyu Toyoko Line) a 14-minute walk, and Ebisu Station (JR Yamanote Line) a 15-minute walk. A notable cultural landmark within a short 5-minute walk is the Yamatane Museum of Art, renowned for its collection of modern Japanese paintings.
