Tempozan Marketplace, Osaka, Japan
A consortium of Japanese investors, converted
a shipping and warehouse district on "Tempozan Island"
in the Osaka Harbor, into a new waterfront development. The initial
project consists of a new aquarium and a marketplace retail center.
A marketplace building of 140,000 s.f. was created by adding onto
a large old warehouse. The concept adapts the "Festival Marketplace"
concept to a unique Japanese urban environment. This marketplace has
thirty specialty shops, nine full service restaurants, twelve fast
food restaurants, an entertainment center court with a complete theatrical
stage and four night clubs.
Harry Culpen & CWA acted as "retail
development & design consultant" to Enterprise Development
Corporation, a division of Rouse.
Cambridge Seven Associates, Inc. is
the architect of record.
