Abstract
The problem of urbanization turns up from the urban compaction. This project is designed to solve this problem in the densely populated city of Tokyo, the population of which is more than 13 million people today. The project of a new neighborhood in the city takes into account social, economic, environmental and geographical characteristics of the Land of the Rising Sun. The project provides one to combine the idea of a universal city with high population density in a small territory. The territory involves a residential area, an industrial area and an agricultural area simultaneously that promotes well-balanced relations between man and nature. The purpose of the survey is to show that it is necessary and possible to use a new strategy of city planning and building, relevant for large, densely populated cities, to make cities more comfortable and economical. The quarter is located on a man-made island in Tokyo Bay. The quarter was built after burning solid household waste without causing damage to the environment by a waste burning plant located on this island to the north. In addition, the plant produces gravel material for creating an artificial island. Besides, it yields surplus electric energy that is fed into the power grid of Tokyo.
