The development is broadly divided into three areas: Umekita Park with lush greenery in the center, a South District which meets a wide range of needs from business to tourism, and a North District to implement innovative life design. This information sheet will introduce the various functions and characteristics of the urban development.

    A place of well-being for citizens and workers alike,
    and a place for various organizations to challenges themselves

    The tentatively named “Umekita Park” will connect directly to JR Osaka Station, the largest terminal station in western Japan, and will provide a core function by integrating seamlessly with offices and private-sector residential areas. With an area of 45,000 square meters, it will be one of the world’s largest urban parks directly connected to a major rail terminal.
    This sustainable, city-central public space which provides an improved quality of life for citizens and visitors and allows for innovation by various organizations will be completed through a collaboration between the public and private sectors.
    The project will now proceed with the aim of opening in advance in September 2024, before the 'Osaka Expo 2025', and fully opening around the spring of 2027.
