The Mouri Detective Agency (毛利探偵事務所 Mōri Tantei Jimusho ) is the place where Detective Mouri lives with his daughter, Ran. Conan begins living there when he is shrunk in order to gain more information about the Black Organization. It is located in Beika Town District 5 (米花町5丁目 Beika-chō 5-chōme ) [2]. According to The Meguro Sanma Case it is located on block 39 (39番地 39-banchi ), but this information is non-canon.
The Mouri Detective Agency takes up the upper two floors of a three story building. The second floor is the detective agency proper, and is where Kogoro meets potential clients and stores his files. The windows are lettered with "Mouri Detective Agency". The third floor is the Mouri family living space. Part of the floor space is a living room with a kotatsu and television. There is also a small kitchen and a bathroom. Kogoro's bedroom, which is shared by Conan, has a sliding door out onto a small balcony overlooking the street. The agency is accessed via a covered staircase to the right of Café Poirot.

Historical sites
Landmarks
Touto Tower
Touto (Tokyo) Tower (東都タワー Tōto Tawā ) is a communications and observation tower located in Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan built in the 1950s. Inspired in design by the Eiffel Tower, this landmark has become a popular tourist and school field trip destination. In the manga and anime series the tower is referred to by the "Touto Tower" name instead of "Tokyo Tower". ("Touto" is how Tokyo used to be called in the past.) The tower was featured recently in the 13th movie, The Raven Chaser during the climax of the film. [12]
Tsutenkaku Tower
The Tsutenkaku Tower (通天閣 Tsūtenkaku ) is a weather and observation tower located in Naniwa-ku, Osaka, Japan built originally in 1912, dismantled, and then rebuilt in the 1950s. This tower, like Touto Tower, was inspired in design by the Eiffel Tower in addition to the Arc de Triomphe. The 1912 Tsutenkaku Tower was built next to an amusement park but later dismantled in the 1940s in an effort to thwart American bombing raids. The current tower was built on the same site in the 1950s thanks to the efforts of the citizens of Osaka.[13] Notable appearances of this landmark in Detective Conan include The Naniwa Serial Murder Case, Conan and Heiji and the Vanished Boy, and The Last Wizard of the Century.
Tokyo Sky Tree
The Tokyo Sky Tree (東京スカイツリー Tōkyō Sukai Tsurī ) is a broadcasting, restaurant, and observation tower located in Sumida, Tokyo, Japan and is still under construction as of November 9, 2011. The Sky Tree was built mostly to give better digital terrestrial television coverage since the Tokyo Tower has long been overshadowed by taller high-rise buildings and is unable to provide the necessary coverage. The in series name for the Tokyo Sky Tree is currently unknown. The Sky Tree replaced the Tokyo Tower as the scene of the climax for Akako's face-off against Kaitou Kid in A Witch Sheds No Tears.[14]
