  • Phase 1: 1967–1969, In phase 2, completed in 1976, Otani introduced repetitive shallow concrete vaults as a major new design element, which would further dominate the designs of phase 3, completed in 1982. A fourth construction phase, led by Otani as well and completed in 2000, lies across the street, but is less notable in the context of Brutalism.
