Toshiyuki KONISHI and Tsuyoshi ITOH
Abstract
Shizuoka has become a government-designated city, and its social and economic environment is currently
undergoing great change.This situation calls for attractive and well-planned regional development which takes full
advantage of the unique characteristics of the Shizuoka region.
A major consideration in planning for sensible regional development is what we wish to hand down to future
generations as we strive to create a comfortable environment. Furthermore,we believe it is important to incorporate
local resources unique to the character of Shizuoka ― its distinctive cuisine, including savory Sushi; its sports
presence, featuring S-Pulse of the J-League;its history and culture, which includes the renowned local strongman
Shimizu Jirocho;and the grand view of majestic Mt.Fuji ― in developing the city’s environment and facilities.Such
development seeks to offer visitors to Shizuoka an impressive experience and provide residents of the region a
lifestyle that is comfortable and satisfying both individually and as a community. Such development highlights our
unique regional personality, preserves and passes down our traditional culture and industry,all essential considerations
in the promotion of regional revitalization.
Our proposal for Shimizu Orido Bay is an expression of the concept and goal of environmental,facility and town
development that takes into consideration the current status of the bay and related plans.
