Shinhama Tower with Views of the Teizan Canal

Shinhama Tower was created so as to be able to offer commanding views of the Teizan Canal and the wetlands. Production was carried out remotely, as Kawamata was once again prevented from visiting Japan with the pandemic still in effect. Detailed instructions were provided from Paris. Progress was slow in coordinating the location of the work, with production commencing in March. The Shinhama Tower unveiling ceremony, held in April, brought local residents, the mayor, and related parties together for the first time in many months.

Tape cutting by figures including Sendai City Mayor Kazuko Kori, the mayors of Wakabayashi and Miyagino wards, and the chairman of the neighborhood association. Kawamata was unable to be in Japan at the time, but sent a voice message.

Located along the Sendai Watari Cycling Road, you can enjoy the ever-changing scenery along the Teizan Canal
