The Sumida City Hall, built on the banks of the Sumida River, is an 18-story building with two sub-ground floors. Its up-to-date technology allows it to cope with the information-oriented society we live in today. "Sumida Riverside Hall," adjacent to the City Hall, is a symbol of riverside culture.
