It has been reported that the site of the former Tsukiji Market, which relocated to Toyosu in 2018, is poised for significant redevelopment. According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, the area where the inner market once stood will be transformed into a bustling commercial district.

Planned Developments

The proposed development will span a vast 19-hectare area adjacent to the Sumida River and near the Hamarikyu Gardens. Details provided reveal plans for constructing a large stadium, which will accommodate about 50,000 people and host a variety of events, from sports to concerts. The development is not only limited to the stadium; it also includes plans for a new hotel, office spaces, and facilities for conferences and exhibitions.

Timeline and Expectations

The ambitious project will unfold in stages, with the first phase of the development expected to open to the public in 2029. The complete realization of the site is scheduled for 2032, transforming the area into a significant urban landmark.
