Minato Mirai 21
If you want to see Yokohama urban development at its most self-assertive, then this is it. The aim of this project, launched in the mid-1980s, was to turn some three-quarters of a square mile of waterfront property, lying east of the JR Negishi Line railroad tracks between Yokohama and Sakuragicho stations, into a model "harbor of the future." As a hotel, business, international exhibition, and conference center, it's been a smashing success.
