The Kitanaka Dori Kita Redevelopment District Maintenance Plan, where large-scale development of an approximately 7.5 ha district is underway, is situated in a zone that has been designated as a “Special Urban Renaissance and Urgent Redevelopment Area.” It is located in the Yokohama central waterfront area, within walking distance of the Minato Mirai 21 district, which has been recognized as one of Japan’s Top 100 Urban Landscapes, the Kannai district, which preserves Yokohama’s rich heritage as a historic port town, and Yamashita Park, one of Yokohama’s most well-known sightseeing spots.
This property will be the City of Yokohama’s largest-scale (1,176 units in total) and tallest (58 floors, approx. 656 ft. (200 m) tall*3) condominium residence, situated in the center of the district plan. In addition, plans call for relocating the new Yokohama City Office Building within the zone of the Kitanaka Dori Minami Redevelopment District Plan at the end of June 2020. This relocation is expected to spur the development of the Kitanaka area into the City of Yokohama’s new central district, hosting a concentration of government functions and residences, as well as retail, accommodation, cultural and other facilities.

Furthermore, a station-front plaza and historic quarter will be developed near the new Bashamichi Station entrance/exit that will be constructed on the site, helping to generate urban vibrancy for both area residents and visitors alike.
