Abstract
The Land Readjustment Project is a method of exchange and consolidation of lands. Therefore it is often said to be the system without the Land Acquisition process. But sometimes the new comers want to buy some lands before or during the project to get a new lot in the project area after the project. This study aims to show the relationship between the Kanto Great Earthquake Rehabilitation Land Readjustment Projects and the Rail Management. We make it clear that the Ministry of Railway bought the lands before or during the project as a policy and the new railway lines in the Tokyo city center were realized with a cooperation of the Great Kanto Earthquake Rehabilitation Land Readjustment Projects.
