 The JR Kannai Station is based on this name.The Kannai district has seen a revival after the inauguration of the Minato Mirai Line in 2004, with better connections to the popular Yokohama Station and Minato Mirai 21 regions.In recent years, due to a change in societal and economic conditions, old office and store buildings are being torn down, in favor of new condominiums; and this has presented challenges for city planning.
