Where Tokugawa Ieyasu built the first bridge over the Sumida River, and old factory sites have grown into blocks of high-rises
The closest neighborhoods in the same city.
Right outside Senju-Ohashi Station is Ponte Grande TOKYO, a new district built on the former site of Nippi's head office. The district is mainly high-rise residences, with some commercial facilities too; City Tower Senju-Ohashi, completed in 2025, markets itself as a 5-minute walk to the station.
Walk further toward the river and you reach the Senju Sumida River Terrace path along the Sumida River, which opened fully in 2017. It was built together with the redevelopment and a super levee, so the levee slopes gently and the walkway on top connects seamlessly with the riverside path below. The Senju-Ohashi bridge over the river—the current steel bridge, completed in 1927—is Japan's oldest tied-arch bridge.
The Midoricho side is residential land that Keisei Electric Railway began selling off in 1935. In this neighborhood, children under 15 make up 13% of the population, more than Adachi City's overall 11%.
Both the Rapid and Local on the Keisei Main Line stop at Senju-Ohashi Station; take the Rapid toward Ueno and the next stop is Nippori.
About half the households here own their homes, more than Adachi City's overall 47%; about 37% rent privately, roughly the same as the city as a whole. From our street photos, buildings rank 170th out of 395 Tokyo neighborhoods, and sidewalks rank 140th, the two highest-ranked items for this neighborhood.
Greenery ranks 365th, the weakest item for this neighborhood; healthcare ranks 314th, also toward the bottom.
This neighborhood has about 160 people per hectare.
In 1594, not long after Tokugawa Ieyasu entered Edo, the first bridge over the Sumida River was built here—Senju-Ohashi.
In 1931, Keisei opened its line to Nippori, and Senju-Ohashi Station also opened that year. Keisei then dug an underground tunnel toward Ueno, and the excavated soil was brought in by train to fill in the wetlands upstream of the bridge.
In 1935, this land began to be sold off under the name Senju Midoricho, and it suffered heavy damage from air raids during the war. Midoricho 1-chome later had a Nippi factory, and the factory site in front of the station has now been rebuilt into a new district.

Hospitals with inpatient beds (2020 data), public elementary and junior high schools whose catchment covers this area, high schools and universities within 1 km, stations, parks of 1 ha or more, and large shopping malls and department stores. Many Tokyo junior high students attend private schools, so junior high catchments are only a guide.
Maps show the shops and the sights. What a street is like, you only know by walking it. TidyMap uses AI street imagery analysis and public facility data to turn each area's street environment and everyday convenience into something you can compare. Search an address and look at the street outside first.
How to read it: yellow = poor, blue = good; grey = not enough data
TidyMap rates the street environment and everyday convenience. It does not assess the home itself, safety, noise or actual living experience. Street environment scores use AI assessments of imagery; convenience scores use public facility data.
