Development Background

Belonging to some kind of community can give people a sense of security, courage, and a renewed desire to try harder.

Thanks to the advancement of information and communications technology, including the Internet, it is now possible to make companions and friends not only in Japan but all over the world.
The more a community is rooted in its local history and culture, the richer it will be. Sumida and Taito wards are home to Asakusa, Edo's most popular entertainment district, Honjo, a residential area, and Mukojima, a scenic spot. They are the ancestral lands of Edo culture, such as food, atmosphere, and craftsmanship, and are areas that built the foundations of Tokyo's development. Taking advantage of the potential unique to this region, various urban and community development concepts and promotion plans have been planned and implemented at the administrative level.
While finding friends from all over the world, we also look deeply at our own feet. TOKYO SKYTREE was invited at a time when people's attitudes towards communities have changed. Not only will it be the tallest in the world at over 600 meters above ground, but we will also develop it so that it will become a symbol of the "richness of community" in the new era by creating new interactions and excitement as a city with a tower.
