This April, a restaurant called Green Gate will open in Seinanmori no Kohan Park in Nanakuma (Jonan Ward). This is the first time the City will allow a private business to operate within park premises. Collecting rent from restaurants can help the City pay for the upkeep of its 1,630 parks, many of which contain aging facilities. The City expects to earn ¥2.17 million in rent in fiscal 2015. The restaurant in Seinanmori no Kohan Park will be operated by Switch, a Hakata Ward-based IT company that is forging into the food business. It will use locally grown produce and offer buffet-style fare. City Hall is also looking into leasing land in Suijo Koen in Nishi-nakasu to a private-sector restaurant.
