the food culture of Japan by providing very fresh fish at the table.Hundreds of wholesale companies exist in TSUKIJI, such as

such as those specializing in tuna, shrimp and shellfish. Thousands of people participate in this diverse resource,

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

responsible for providing many varieties of marine products. In the center of this food culture, however,

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

however, there has now become a serious situation.For the last 10 years, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has been promoting a plan to

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

a plan to relocate TSUKIJI to TOYOSU.From the onset of this plan, many people realized that this relocation idea is reckless.

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

Opposition or objection has erupted because transferring TSUKIJI will result in the loss of the essence of Japanese culinary culture

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

Japanese culinary culture nurtured by our predecessors.Even so, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has tried to force a relocation plan.

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

Aｓ a result, it has raised a lot of concerns.The truth was finally revealed by the new governor last year. The previous governor broke

The previous governor broke his promises relating to the soil contamination countermeasures that must occur before construction at

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

before construction at the resettlement site at TOYOSU.The media only focused on this matter, however it is only part of the problem.

A plan has been announced that will destroy TSUKIJI. This plan is to demolish the Tsukiji market structure and use the area as a parking

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

the area as a parking lot for busses during the Olympic Games. After the Olympic Games, urban development will be executed on the site.

The relocation to TOYOSU will fundamentally breakdown the role that TSUKIJI has been playing in supporting Japan's food culture, and thus

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

and thus will not work for a number of reasons. Firstly, their plan ignores the current logistic system in TSUKIJI.

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

Secondly, their plan ignores the customers who come and shop in TSUKIJI. Thirdly, it will be difficult for the wholesalers of TSUKIJI to

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

TSUKIJI to continue to operate their businesses at TOYOSU.Fourthly, the wholesalers cannot handle the fresh food properly,

建築エコノミスト森山高至（漁協建築研究家） @mori_arch_econo

quickly and safely as in Tsukiji. Finally, the workers will not be able to commute as they did to Tsukiji. There are so many negative
