■Yokohama Area property listings

Yokohama Station is an immense transportation hub. Its 11 rail and subway lines are provided by six distinct commuter-rail companies, more than any other train station in Japan. This position as a rail nexus makes Yokohama Station extraordinarily convenient, offering smooth connections to nerve centers such as Shinjuku Station, Shibuya Station and Tokyo Station with no change of trains. The station building is flanked by underground shopping streets at both the west and east exist, spoiling residents with a surfeit of retail options, and its environs are abuzz with road and high-rise construction.

One such building is The Yokohama Front Tower. Built to connect directly into the station, this complex will open its doors soon. Soaring 43 stories above ground with about 450 residential units, The Yokohama Front Tower also comprises a hotel, offices, retail outlets and more. Common condominium facilities include a party lounge and children’s space, as well as Bay View Lounge.

Minato Mirai district is a hit with people who love being in an open-space environment close to the sea. The Tower Yokohama Kitanaka, a 58-story tower mix of condominium residences and commercial facilities, opened in 2019 with a direct connection into Bashamichi Station. Retail outlets occupy the lower floors, a hotel and residences the higher floors. The residential portion accommodates diverse lifestyles both foreign and domestic, with a full complement of common facilities.

On the site of the former city hall south of Kannai Station, a mixed-use facility is being developed. With opening date pencilled in for 2026, this complex will include a hotel operated by Hoshino Resorts, offices and even a university.
