Island City, Artificial island in Higashi-ku, Japan.
Island City extends into Hakata Bay with engineered waterways, residential zones, commercial districts, and maritime facilities spanning the reclaimed terrain.
The development of Island City began as part of Fukuoka's expansion strategy in the late 20th century to address land scarcity in the region.
The island incorporates Japanese design principles in its layout, with dedicated spaces for seasonal festivals and community gatherings throughout the year.
A network of buses connects Island City to central Fukuoka, while walking paths and cycling routes provide additional transportation options.
The island features specialized marine research facilities and laboratories that study the environmental impact of coastal development in Japan.
