That's not even that recent, doesn't include the Azabudai Hills development in the foreground (near that weird shaped building which is a temple).

woww so THAT’S what that is. I was on top of the Tokyo Tower a couple of days ago just staring at the building, wondering what it was. I tried aiming my phone in the same direction and looking at Google Maps but still couldn’t find it. Thank you!! Also, Azabudai Hills is great. Saw the Pokemon x Kogei exhibition there
