Shinagawa area has a great amount of potential as the future home of a new Yamanote Station and as the first stop on the future maglev train line.

Shinagawa continues to evolve as a new business hub, attracting global corporations to the area.

Shinagawa flourished as the first post station on the Tokaido, the highway from Edo to Kyoto, and developed into a strategic stop for the exchange of people, things and information. Shinagawa’s extremely convenient location and its vast number of hotels, make it an extremely appealing area that will continue to develop as an international business hub.
