In November 2016, its largest fish market was planned to relocate, leaving behind a vast territory in one of the central wards. As a strategy to connect this post-industrial territory to the everyday of the Tokyoites, a metro station is proposed in a former market hall of the Tsukiji Shijio in Chuo-ku, Tokyo. The design aims to release the potential of the transport hub as an urban centre, by redefining the metro station as a generous, inclusive place for the Tokyoites. Also, an urban plan is proposed which combines housing, commercial functions and offices.
