History of Minato Mirai 21

P21

Since the opening of its port in 1859, Yokohama has beenprosperous as a place of exchange for people, cultures andgoods from around the world while cultivating an open,
enterprising spirit. It is also where modernization of Japan
originated and has been developing as a city that is open to
the world. Even today, it is growing as an international citywith a population of 3.71 million people.
Yokohama has a highly developed urban environment
required for business, including one of the largest
international trading ports in Japan, a high degree ofaccessibility from various parts of the Tokyo metropolitan
area such as the re-expanded, internationalized Haneda
Airport, green living environment, competent humanresources and the extensive market of the Tokyo
metropolitan area.
Not only a perfect base for business, Yokohama is a vibrant,
entertaining city that is extremely popular with both domestic
and overseas tourists, and a favored site for conventions.
In this publication we focus on Minato Mirai 21, a remarkable
initiative. Minato Mirai 21 is now ﬁrmly established as an
outstanding business environment that also oﬀers
fascinating glimpses of history and stunning waterfront
scenery. Each day, 102,000 people come to work here.
Each year, 76 million people come to visit. Minato Mirai
21 is already one of the strongest people magnets inJapan, and yet it's still a work in progress.
Future plans include a greater focus on business andcommercial entities, accompanied by cultural and artistic
activities that make full use of the port's historical andcultural assets. Our aim is to shape an urban environmentthat will attract creative industries and individuals.

Project Concept

Primary Objectives“The Minato Mirai 21 Project” is a project to create a new city center

1. A More Independent Yokohama

Sapporoalong the waterfront of Yokohama. When the project was ﬁrst

Prior to the Minato Mirai 21 project, Yokohama's city center was divided into two areas: the Kannai/Isezakicho District and the Yokohama

Yokohama was experiencing growing pains from rapid residential

cultural facilities and commercial establishments in these areas. This creates jobs and bustling recreational areas for citizens, invigorates

development and population growth as a suburb of the expanding
Niigatarebuilding. As a result, trading companies and other businesses
moved their operations to Tokyo. At the same time, the area around

This method entails creating columns of sand at uniform intervals in soft ground so that the water contained in the

This method entails strengthening ground by mixing cement and other reinforcing materials into soft ground.

Utility tunnels in the ground under the main traﬃc arteries are used to facilitate Minato Mirai 21's vital shared urban utility services. Situating these facilities under the roads
eﬀectively utilizes underground space, improves disaster-resistance and enhances the appearance of the city. These facilities were progressively installed from 1983 in theCentral District as part of the Minato Mirai 21 development, and completed in 2004. Utility tunnels for electric power cables are currently being installed in the Shinko District.
Status The main common utility tunnel runs for approximately 7.0km under Minato Mirai-odori Boulevard, Kokusai-odori

District Heating & Cooling System

Emergency Underground Water Tanks ❸Making urban life even more convenient and secure, Minato Mirai 21 has adopted a districtwide cooling and heating system that centralizes the
production, supply and control of processed air. This is more energy eﬃcient and minimizes pollution and the possibility of accidents. The central
plant features an STL heat exchange and storage system that draws its power in the middle of the night, when electricity is cheap. A second plantuses a largescale, high eﬃciency turbo refrigeration unit to save energy and reduce ＣＯ₂ emissions. As the area
served expands, more eco-friendly, higher eﬃciency heating equipment is being installed.
