Grandberry Park represents a groundbreaking, transit-oriented development conceived through a master plan that seamlessly connects the new lifestyle center to the adjacent Tsuruma Park. Set on the city’s Tokyu Denen-tonshi train line, Laguarda.Low Architects’ design for Grandberry Park includes an outdoor retail village which forms a simple, European-style loop with open plazas for leisure and entertainment. With 240+ stores and a robust food and beverage selection, the outdoor shopping destination offers a range of experiences to keep the guest engaged. Since opening in late 2019, Grandberry Park has continued to gain momentum as a popular shopping and leisure destination. With a host of sustainable features implemented at the site, the project was recently awarded LEED Gold Certification.

Located a 30-minute train ride from the center of Tokyo, Grandberry Park is a new paradigm in mixed-use lifestyle centers. Developed through a public-private partnership, the site includes the lifestyle center, Minamimachida train station, a library, official Snoopy museum, multiple children’s playgrounds, and great lawn all integrated with the adjacent Tsuruma Park. Laguarda.Low Architects’ application of thoughtful urban planning principles ensures that the center is not only a popular destination but also a benefit to the surrounding community. Grandberry Park acts as a third place, a community center and place to socialize and meet with friends. At its core, the project succeeds in bringing the public and private sectors together to redevelop the urban infrastructure and create a new “living-base” at a connectivity point where nature and activity can merge.
