Osanbashi Pier is the oldest pier at the Port of Yokohama, constructed between 1889 and 1896 as a full-scale, modern port and harbor facility. Due to the aging of the pier, the pier was re-constructed between 1988 and 2002.
In order to emphasize on the ships, the terminal's height was kept as low as possible. The rooftop draws on ocean waves as its motif and has a unique, loosely bi-directional curved shape. The structure has no pillars or beams, creating a vast open space inside the building. The terminal can accommodate four 30,000-ton class passenger vessels or two 70,000-ton class ones at the same time.
The first floor of the terminal is a parking area for up to 400 passengers cars; on the second floor, there is a lobby, CIQ (Customs, Immigration and Quarantine) facility, and a multi-purpose hall at the very end. The rooftop serves as a square open to the public 24 hours a day, where visitors can enjoy close views of the calling cruise ships.
This new passenger terminal will not only meet the demands of the cruise industry in the 21st century, it will also become a new landmark of Yokohama that draws the citizens and the port closer together.
