  • Restoration of Sumida River
    Restoration of Sumida River Postwar Sumida River waterfront was occupied by factories and warehouses, was deteriorated like a ditch, and was shunned by people. At the same time, industrial and logistical structure changes sap the area’s vitality as a production base. But increasing interest in environment headed for the semi-ruined city waterfront and a possibility of its restoration emerged and city-and-river development started, thus attractive urban area was gradually created. In Asian nations with worsening river environments, Sumida River, improving after experiencing 50-year deterioration is a leading example in Asia. Key to Restoration ¾ Water quality improvement ¾ Waterfront space restoration and waterfront development (river-walk) Overview of the River Sumida River branches from Ara River at Iwabuchi, Kita Ward. It unites with many streams such as Shingashi River, Shakujii River, and Kanda River, and flows in Tokyo Bay. It flows south to north in the seven wards in lower-level eastern areas in Tokyo (Kita Ward, Adachi Ward, Arakawa Ward, Sumida Ward, Taitou Ward, Chuo Ward, and Koutou Ward). Its total length is 23.5 km, its width is about 150 m, and the basin dimension is 690.3 km2 including upstream Shingashi River. The basin population almost reaches 6.2 million. Sumida River’s water quality, though quite polluted in the high-growth period, has substantially improved by the efforts such as water Sumida River purification projects for Sumida River restoration (e.g., construction of a filtering plant in Ukima). The variety and the number of fish, water birds, and water plants have also started to increase.

  • Urban Reform and Shrinking City Hypotheses on the Global City Tokyo
    Urban Reform and Shrinking City Hypotheses on the Global City Tokyo Hiroshige TANAKA Professor of Economic Faculty in Chuo University, 742-1Higashinakano Hachioji city Tokyo 192-0393, Japan. Chiharu TANAKA1 Manager, Mitsubishi UFJ Kokusai Asset Management Co.,Ltd.,1-12-1 Yurakucho, Chiyodaku, Tokyo 100-0006, Japan. Abstract The relative advantage among industries has changed remarkably and is expected to bring the alternatives of progressive and declining urban structural change. The emerging industries to utilize ICT, AI, IoT, financial and green technologies foster the social innovation connected with reforming the urban structure. The hypotheses of the shrinking city forecast that the decline of main industries has brought the various urban problems including problems of employment and infrastructure. But the strin- gent budget restriction makes limit the region on the social and market system that the government propels the replacement of industries and urban infrastructures. By developing the two markets model of urban structural changes based on Tanaka (1994) and (2013), we make clear theoretically and empirically that the social inno- vation could bring spreading effects within the limited area of the region, and that the social and economic network structure prevents the entire region from corrupting. The results of this model analysis are investigated by moves of the municipal average income par taxpayer of the Tokyo Area in the period of 2011 to 2014 experimentally. Key words: a new type of industrial revolution, shrinking city, social innovation, the connectivity of the Tokyo Area, urban infrastructures. 1.

  • 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.
