Harumi district in Chuo-ku, which is the planned site of the Olympic Village for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
On a sunny day on January 12, I went to see the current situation around Harumi 5-chome.
This day will be 2020 days before the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics.
As a player village, the building where the players stay will be built during this 2020 day, but it is still a story that will be built. The current situation seems to be still in the concept stage.
It is said that this accommodation facility will be diverted as a residence after the tournament, but according to the content announced by Tokyo on December 19, two high-rise apartments will be built after the tournament, and a city with commercial facilities and schools will be built It is a magnificent plan.

Speaking of the big buildings in this place now, there are high chimneys "Hot Plaza Harumi" and "Harumi Passenger Terminal".
For now, there is only a vast space around it, and looking at this space alone, it is still difficult to imagine that one city will be completed here in the future.
Various constructions have already begun in this area, so the scenery in your eyes will change every moment.
The rooftop of the Harumi Passenger Ship Terminal is a place with a good view of the Rainbow Bridge and Tokyo Tower.
On the other side of the south side, there is also a new market in Toyosu under construction.
It is a place where you can look down on Harumi and its surroundings in the future, so I would like to visit regularly.
