It was formed in 1947 as a merger of Akasaka, Azabu and Shiba wards following Tokyo City's
transformation into Tokyo Metropolis. The modern Minato ward exhibits the contrasting
Shitamachi and Yamanote geographical and cultural division. The Shinbashi neighborhood in the
ward's northeastern corner is attached to the core of Shitamachi, the original commercial center
of Edo-Tokyo. On the other hand, the Azabu and Akasaka areas are typically representative
Yamanote districts.[2]
As of 1 July 2015, it had an official population of 243,094,[3] and a population density of 10,850
persons per km2. The total area is 20.37 km2.[4]
Minato hosts many embassies. It is also home to various domestic companies, including Honda,
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Mitsubishi Motors Corporation, NEC, Nikon, SoftBank Group,[5]
Sony,[6] Fujitsu[7] and Yokohama Rubber Company, as well as the Japanese headquarters of a
number of multi-national firms, including Apple[8] and Goldman Sachs.[9]
Geography
Minato is located southwest of the Imperial Palace and has boundaries with the special wards of
Chiyoda, Chūō, Kōtō (in Odaiba), Shinagawa, Shibuya, and Shinjuku.

History
The ward was founded on 15 March 1947, with the merger of Akasaka, Azabu, and Shiba Wards.
Various names were considered for the new ward, such as Atago, Aoyama, Aoba, Iikura, Mita, and
Higashiminato. Higashiminato was chosen, meaning "East Harbor", but then Higashi was cut
leading to the name Minato, simply meaning "harbor".
Politics and government
Minato is governed by Mayor Masaaki Takei, an Independent supported by all major parties
except the Japanese Communist Party. The city legislative assembly has 51 members and is
dominated by the Liberal Democratic Party.
