This area is the birthplace of modern harbors with unique regional characteristics as an "island" and should be designed to create a cityscape in harmony with the surrounding area, such as harbor-related facilities that support Yokohama Port in the 21st century, lively facilities connecting Minato Mirai 21 Central District and Kannai-District, and green spaces that make use of the quiet inland water.
For this reason, the purpose of this district plan is to plan a planned urban area formation with the aim of achieving the following goals in conjunction with the "Minato Mirai 21 Shinko District Townscape Landscape Guidelines".
