Edogawa River (G-Cans) Project
![]() |
The G-Cans project, also known as the Edogawa River Project, is Japan’s attempt to prevent Tokyo and its 12 million inhabitants from being washed away by a typhoon. The system of holding tanks, tunnels and pumping devices was featured in a somewhat recent showing of Discovery Channel’s Building the Future program. Linked below is a photo gallery of shots taken of the impressive concrete structures that exist 50m below Tokyo. |
