Market Parties on “Plan of Reutilisation of Tsukiji”

Tokyo Governor Koike-san, in regard to the relocation of Toyosu
is thinking about the direction.

On 17 June, visiting Tsukiji market
Governor who was in front of the market parties.
Bowed down for 10 seconds, regarding “detoxification” of the destination Toyosu market
in brief, she apologised for the site not being able to clear the environmental standard.

Actually, not only Toyosu market but also from Tsukiji market now
toxic substances surpassing environmental standard are detected,
Because measures such as covering with concrete are all done
Experts conclude that safety is not a problem.
In such circumstances,
What judgment does Governor Koike make.

In the discussion thus far,
“Following the conventional policy, plan of relocating to Toyosu market” and
“Abandoning relocation, plan of redeveloping Tsukiji market and continuing its business”
there have been two such plans.
While either of the plans was attracting attention
Governor Koike, the day before yesterday, said that “there is not only Plan A or Plan B”.
The plan emerging is “Plan of Reutilisation of Tsukiji”.

“Plan of Reutilisation of Tsukiji” is that, upon relocating to Toyosu market
Tsukiji site is not sold
but will be lent out to private sector for about 16 billion yen per year
this is a plan which makes money with the advantage of the brand power of Tsukiji.
It is planned to be used as commercial facilities or tourist facilities
it is said to be a plan to utilise both Toyosu and Tsukiji.
During the visit to Tsukiji market, Governor Koike, in front of the market parties,
said this.

■ Governor Koike
“‘Tsukiji’ is the treasure of Tokyo…”
“‘Tsukiji’ which is developed carefully…”
“Because it is nurtured by the place ‘Tsukiji’ there is such brand power, isn’t it”

The word “Tsukiji” were repeatedly mentioned more than 10 times.
Market parties who have listened to this were filled with some expectations.

■ Market party
“It seems a one-shot big turn, if it is decided not to go (to Toyosu)
well, it would be really great, I think”

■ Market party
“With no further problem, (Tsukiji) can be remained as it is, Tsukiji can be redeveloped
it will turn to be a beautiful market, we have such hope”

■ Market party
“The way to keep Tsukiji, we were told about this”

Having heard about Governor Koike emphasising about the brand power of Tsukiji,
there were also parties who would “stay in Tsukiji”.

However in the occasion of “Plan of Reutilisation of Tsukiji”,
it is to the last Toyosu which will perform the function of market.

Furthermore, during 2020 Tokyo Olympics・Paralympics
Tsukiji site is planned to be used as car park to an extent to accommodate 5,000 vehicles,
how to realise it is also an issue.

In regard to this newly-proposed plan,
officials close to Governor Koike, before the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly Election in July 2017
said that “Both Supports (Relocate to Toyosu) and Opposers (Stay in Tsukiji)
are trying to keep more allies on their sides.”

However, officials of the Tokyo metropolitan area
“Such ambiguity is Koiki-san-like”
expressed coldly.
We are going to pay attention to Governor Koike’s judgment.
