Revitalization of Shinagawa Intercity
The renowned Shinagawa Intercity, operated by Nittetsu Kowa Real Estate Co., Ltd., has officially announced its grand reopening scheduled for March 30, 2026. After completing renovations and introducing new tenants, this celebrated commercial complex will emerge anew under the concept of 'Shinagal'. This revitalization aims to seamlessly combine work, community, and relaxation, creating a vibrant urban destination where food and experiences converge.
The 'Shinagal' Concept
Originally opened in December 1998, Shinagawa Intercity features a high-rise complex consisting of three office buildings and one commercial space, playing a pivotal role in the development of the eastern entrance of the Shinagawa Station. The new concept 'Shinagal' embodies connections among people, neighborhoods, and future aspirations. It promises to foster an inviting environment where diverse values and cultures intersect, facilitating organic gatherings among office workers, local residents, and visitors. This initiative promotes a bustling atmosphere and encourages meaningful interactions throughout the entire city, bridging the past, present, and future of Shinagawa.
Introducing the 'SHINATERRACE KITCHEN'
One of the highlights of this renovation is the unveiling of a brand-new food hall, 'SHINATERRACE KITCHEN', located on the basement level of the Shop & Restaurant building. This space showcases a warm ambiance, featuring wooden floors, walls, and ceilings, with natural light filtering through glass facades, creating a refreshing atmosphere during the day and a calming glow from indirect lighting at night. It offers a variety of seating options, including sofa seats, bench seating, and counters with power outlets, making it an ideal venue for lunch, meetings, after-work drinks, and family outings. Additionally, guests can enjoy takeout options in the surrounding Central Garden or Atrium, embracing a novel style of dining that promotes free movement within and outside the hall.
The food hall will also support mobile orders, allowing guests to avoid long lines while enjoying diverse culinary offerings. Moreover, patrons can bring craft beers from the 'YONA YONA TOKYO BREWERY' located on the same floor, creating a unique blend of food and beverage experiences.
A Hub of Experiences
Coinciding with the grand opening is the introduction of 'YONA YONA TOKYO BREWERY,' a spacious brewery restaurant with approximately 200 seats, claiming the title of Japan's largest station-connected brewery. Under the theme 'The Future is Brewing', this flagship location transforms the experience of beer from mere consumption to an immersive activity. With an on-site brewing facility operated by expert brewers from Yamagata Brewing Company, the space is further enhanced with a DJ booth and an island bar featuring more than 30 taps.
Another exciting addition is the 'STUDIO LUX', a dance studio operated by Sega Sammy Group, set to open in April. This studio will offer special classes led by members of the D.LEAGUE team 'SEGA SAMMY LUX', delivering unparalleled dance experiences to its patrons.
Having evolved significantly over its 25 years of operation, Shinagawa Intercity is poised to continue its journey as a next-generation urban hub, fostering a lifestyle blend of work, community, and relaxation.
