Overview and Character of the Shibaura-futo Area

Shibaura-futo Station, numbered U05 on the Yurikamome Line, is located in Kaigan 3-chome, Minato City. The district developed around Tokyo Bay's port functions, and warehouses, logistics facilities, offices and condominium buildings remain intermingled. Its atmosphere differs from the denser commercial environment around Tamachi Station: canals, waterfront infrastructure and broad roads create a more open, industrial-waterfront character. Rainbow Bridge's Shibaura entrance is close to the station. According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, the pedestrian promenade is about 1.7 km from the Shibaura entrance to the Daiba side and normally takes around 20–30 minutes to walk. Shibaura Minami Futo Park at the foot of the bridge offers views toward Tokyo Bay and Odaiba. For supermarkets, restaurants and public services, the practical living area generally extends toward Shibaura 2- and 3-chome and JR Tamachi Station. People considering housing here should therefore check actual walking distances, surrounding road conditions and waterfront wind exposure on site.
