  • Shibuya City Industry and Tourism Vision
    渋谷区 Shibuya City Preface Preface In October 2016, Shibuya City established the Shibuya City Basic Concept with the goal of becoming a mature international city on par with London, Paris, and New York. The goal is to use diversity as a driving force, with our vision of the future: 'Shibuya—turning difference into strength'. One element of the Basic Concept is setting a direction for the Shibuya City Long-Term Basic Plan of 'A city with businesses unafraid to take risks', which is a future vision of industry and tourism unique to Shibuya City. Each area in Shibuya City has its own unique charm with a collection of various businesses and shops, and a great number of visitors from inside Japan and overseas, making it a place overflowing with diversity. With the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games being held this year, 2020 is our chance for Shibuya City to become a mature international city. In this regard, I believe we must make even further progress in industry and tourism policies for the future of the city. To accomplish this, I believe a plan that further details the policies in the Long-Term Basic Plan is necessary, which is why the Industry and Tourism Vision has been established. Industry and tourism in Shibuya City faces a wide range of challenges that must be tackled, including environmental improvements and safety issues for accepting inbound tourism and industry. In order to further revitalize the shopping districts and small to medium sized businesses in the city, I also believe it is important to take on new challenges such as building a startup ecosystem and nighttime economy.

    NLI Research Institute November 26, 2012 Real Direct Station Connections and Retail Complexes, Estate Features of Latest Tokyo Grade-A Office Buildings Analysis Real Estate Investment Team, Financial Research Group Mamoru Masumiya [email protected] Report Summary ・ The Tokyo office vacancy rates remained high and very large sized office building rents in the Tokyo central three wards plunged to a historic low, as several large buildings were supplied mainly in the CBD in the first half of 2012. However, the pace of new supply is slowing down in the second half, and the grade-A building rents are recovering based on relatively low prices and tenant preference for buildings well prepared for disaster-prevention and energy-saving. ・ In the first half of this year, “Shibuya Hikarie” garnered attention both as a new retail complex and a skyscraper office which secured rents as high as those in the Marunouchi area. Just like “Shibuya Hikarie,” the latest Tokyo grade-A office buildings have features such as direct station connections and retail complexes. ・ In Tokyo, more than a few stations have very convenient access and large passenger numbers as many train lines cross each other forming the world’s most advanced urban train network. Tenants in station-connected buildings can enjoy shopping, dining and other services in and around their offices. Furthermore, considering recent intensifying weather conditions, it is likely that station-connected buildings will become even more popular hereafter. ・ Recently, an increasing number of grade-A buildings has been developed in Tokyo, and those stocks have become pretty sizable. As the competition within the grade-A category becomes more intense, factors such as access to the closest station and surrounding commercial development will be increasingly important in addition to the inherent value of each station and area.
