The shift of the center towards the bay area<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe development is centered around Marunouchi<\/a> and Roppongi now, but it will shift towards the bay area.\u201d So predicts architect Ryuji Fujimura<\/a>. Many facilities, including the Olympic Village, are being constructed in Harumi for the 2020 Olympics. The Village will be reused as residential apartments after the Games. Together with Mitsui Fudosan\u2019s<\/a> new highrise apartment, there will be around 5,600 additional rooms on the market. Harumi\u2019s redevelopment is only a fraction of the \u201cTokyo Bay Area Vision,\u201d drawn up by the city of Tokyo in July. Toyosu aims to boost employment and commerce with the new Bayside Cross Tower<\/a>, a massive office building connected to LaLaport Toyosu. Harumi is promoting a resort-like environment with the Tokyo International Cruise Termina<\/a>l, planned to open in 2020, while Takeshiba is creating a sleek waterfront. Tokyo is focused on the bay area from a bird\u2019s-eye view and plans to take advantage of each area\u2019s characteristics. With housing, business, and commerce, the bay area will be a multi-functional district. But according to Fujimura, this isn\u2019t the first time Tokyo has focused on the bay area. \u201cIn the 1980s, Tokyo tried to turn the bay area into the center of Asia\u2019s financial market to compete with Singapore\u2019s Marina Bay. But the plan was called off in 1995 when Governor Yukio Aoshima canceled the World City Expo. The plans for 2020 may be a chance to recover those old ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
