2008年6月14日、副都心線開業とともに宮下公園向かいに「13番出口」が新設。この出口は、渋谷−原宿間を結ぶ明治通りの起点でありながら、渋谷−青山通りを結ぶ起点ともなる。さらに宮下公園の高架下をくぐって進めば、公園通り方面へもダイレクトに向かうことができるので、この出口の新設をきっかけに、渋谷ではJR渋谷駅、スクランブル交差点を経由しない新たな導線が生まれたと言うこともできるだろう。周辺エリアに注目が集まる中、2010年5月には宮下公園のネーミングライツ(命名権)を取得したナイキジャパンが「宮下NIKEパーク」を開設する。もともとこの土地は東京オリンピックが開催される1964年までは野原が整備された程度の公園であったが、渋谷川の暗渠化工事に伴い、将来の自動車社会を予見して駐車場と一体化した空中公園として1966年にリニューアルオープン。以来43年に亘り、渋谷駅から最も近い緑地として、渋谷で働く人や住民の憩いの場として愛され続けてきた。今回の計画では広さ1万808平方メートルの細長い敷地にスケートボードやクライミング設備を新設し、既存フットサルコートには新たに観覧スタンドを設けるなど、子どもや若者が楽しめるスポーツ施設として一新するという。そのほか、身体障害者や高齢者に向けてエレベーターを設置、外周フェンス、園内灯、ベンチなど、老朽化が進む公園の改修を同時に進め、幅広い年齢層が過ごせる場に生まれ変わる予定だ。

大正時代から増改築が繰り返されている「渋谷駅」は、耐震性の向上、バリアフリー化、乗換利便性の向上といった観点から抜本的な見直しが迫られている。渋谷区駅中心地区の都市基盤についは、2007年9月に渋谷区から発表された「渋谷駅中心地区まちづくりガイドライン2007」に基づいて、駅および鉄道の改良を契機に「駅街区」「新文化街区(東急文化会館跡地)」「東横線跡地街区」「桜丘口地区(桜丘町周辺)」「道玄坂一丁目駅前地区(ハチ公口+JR南口周辺)」の5つの街区が連鎖した総合的なまちづくり、駅部の公共施設と建築物との一体整備が方向付けられた。さらに2008年6月には渋谷区と東京都から「渋谷駅街区基盤整備方針」、2009年1月に「渋谷駅街区基盤整備 都市計画変更案」が公表。その計画によれば、まず2012年に副都心線との相互直通運転を開始する東横線の地下化に伴い、新南口駅として孤立している埼京線・湘南新宿ラインのホームが移設、山手線と並列化される。また銀座線ホームは東側に移動され、2面2線の相対式から1面2線の島式に変更。さらにユニークなのは、渋谷ならではの谷地形を利用し、東口の「新文化街区(東急文化会館跡地)」から銀座線、西口の井の頭線までフラットにつなぐスカイウェイが構想されている点で、実現すれば複雑化する乗り入れの利便性が高められる。地上レベルでは、入り組んだ駅ビルが国道246号線側に再配置され、合わせてハチ公広場は拡充される予定。隣接する国道246号線は44〜38メートルから50〜45メートルに拡幅し、6車線化するという。また地上の東口駅前広場と西口駅前広場の連続性を確保するため自由通路が整備、これに伴って東西のバスターミナルが再配置、タクシー乗降場の地下化、タクシープールの拡充など、現在の渋谷駅とは大きく姿を変える。すでに2009年6月には都市計画が決定しており、来年3月には都市計画事業として認可される見込み。本格的な工事着手は2012年の東横線の地下化に伴い、現・東横線渋谷駅高架式ホームが廃止されてからとなるが、渋谷駅東口では2009年7月から先行して「新文化街区プロジェクト」の新築工事が始動している。
