First Buildings Open at Tokyo's Tsukiji Redevelopment Site
Mitsui Fudosan's consortium is rebuilding the 190,000 sq m former Tsukiji fish market site in Chuo City as nine buildings totalling about 1,170,000 sq m, including an all-weather multifunctional venue for roughly 50,000 people, a theatre hall, a culinary centre and a waterbus terminal. The whole scheme is costed at about 900 billion yen.
- A Mitsui Fudosan-led consortium of 11 companies was selected by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government on April 19, 2024 as prospective operator for the Tsukiji District Development Project on the former Tsukiji fish market site in Chuo-ku[1]
- The scheme covers approximately 190,000 m² of TMG-owned land with a total floor area of about 1,170,000 m² across nine main buildings, at a total expected project cost of approximately ¥900 billion[1]
- The schedule is given as "first half of 2030s or later (advance opening of facility in fiscal 2029)", so the 2029 date is an advance opening rather than the completion of the scheme[1]
- The centrepiece is a grand-scale multifunctional venue for about 50,000 people, with seating adjustable from 20,000 to 57,000 and movable and temporary seating to form a stadium, arena, theater or exhibition space for rugby, baseball, soccer, basketball, e-sports, MICE, live music, concerts and theatrical performances, plus one of Japan's largest lounges, VIP rooms, permanent wheelchair seating, audio and text services, a sensory room and a cool down room[1]
- The other buildings are a life science and commercial complex drawing on proximity to the National Cancer Center Japan, a MICE, hotel and residence building, a boat transport and theater hall complex holding a food hall, a food lab, a roughly 1,200-seat theater hall and a boat waiting area, two further world-class hotels facing Hama-rikyu Gardens, a residence for global executives, an office and residence building, and an office building with shared offices and retail[1]
- Mitsui Fudosan is representative company alongside Toyota Fudosan and The Yomiuri Shimbun Holdings as operating companies, with Kajima, Shimizu, Taisei and Takenaka building, Nikken Sekkei and Pacific Consultants as architects, and The Asahi Shimbun and Toyota Motor as partners[1]
- The project is pitched around three roles - "wellness innovation", "food, experience, and activity" and "hospitality" - aimed at a society of healthy longevity and at bolstering Tokyo's international competitiveness while carrying on Japan's food, culture and arts and drawing on Tsukiji's history[1]
- About 10 hectares of open space will link the site to surrounding resources such as Hama-rikyu Gardens and the Sumida River, with collaboration promised with the Tsukiji outer market[1]
- Transport plans include a new station on the Rinkai Subway Line linking Tokyo Station and the Rinkai area, a connection to the Metropolitan Expressway's Harumi Route, a port "looking to practical use of flying cars", a Sumida River boat transport hub for tourist and commuter services, and a terminal for buses, taxis and next-generation mobility[1]
- Carbon neutrality measures listed are wind paths, solar generation, greenery at around a 40% green space ratio, a hydrogen power station and biogas generation[1]
- Mitsui Fudosan notes the release "presents a summary of the proposal submitted to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government at the present time, and the information is subject to change in the future"[1]
