JR Kyushu to Sell ‘Sagan Tosu SUGOCA’ Starting June 22
JR East has announced that ahead of the city opening of the Takanawa Gateway Station area redevelopment project “TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY” in March 2025, it will hold an event titled “TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY Pre-City Opening Festival in March” on March 15th and 16th at the station to foster excitement for the opening a year in advance.
The event will feature a variety of content such as introducing the town, live radio broadcasts, and a market selling wine transported by train from Nagano Prefecture. A town concept movie screening, which is usually not open to the public, will be held in the “Partner Base Takanawa Gateway Station” area on the renovated 2nd floor of Takanawa Gateway Station. The event runs from 4 pm to 10 pm on the 15th, and from 11 am to 7 pm on the 16th. Some contents require a station admission ticket to participate as they are held inside the station gates.
“TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY” is a redevelopment project comprising four skyscrapers and one low-rise cultural creation facility, a total of five buildings. The total area of the project is about 13 hectares, making it one of the largest redevelopment projects in central Tokyo. The complex building Ⅰ and the station area are scheduled to open in March 2025, with the other buildings and their surrounding areas expected to open within the fiscal year 2025.
