Roppongi is a district of Minato, Tokyo and a popular center of nightlife. Roppongi's name, meaning "six trees", was coined in 1660, and Roppongi was not extensively populated until after the Meiji Restoration. Roppongi became home to the Third Imperial Guard of the Imperial Japanese Army in 1890, resulting in the development of a nightlife district. After the destruction of Roppongi in World War II, the US Army occupied several facilities in the area, transforming it into an American military district where many Japanese-owned restaurants, pool halls, bars, and brothels catered to both American soldiers and Japanese customers. During the late 1960s, Roppongi became popular for its disco scene, and it came to be home to several foreign embassies and corporate offices. The nightlife decline after the burst of the Japanese bubble economy in 1989, but it received a major economic boost with the construction of the high-end Izumi Garden Tower and Roppongi Hills from 2002 to 2003. Roppongi now features numerous bars, nightclubs, strip clubs, restaurants, hostess clubs, cabarets, and other forms of entertainment. In 2016, Roppongi had 12,111 residents.
