Shibaura (芝浦) is a district of Minato ward located in Tokyo, Japan. The district is located between the eastern side of the Yamanote Line train and Tokyo Bay.[citation needed]
Shibaura is the home to a number of major Japanese corporations including Toshiba (originally Tokyo Shibaura Electric) and Oki.[citation needed] The Japan Times has its headquarters in the Japan Times Nifco Building (ジャパンタイムズ・ニフコビル Japan Taimuzu Nifuko Biru) in Shibaura.[1][2]

The district is served by Tamachi Station and Hamamatsucho Station on the Yamanote Line, and by Shibaura-futō Station of the Yurikamome line. The Yokosuka Line also runs in a tunnel below the district, although there are no stops in the area.[citation needed]
