Yes, you often don't hear the "u" sound in spoken Japanese.
There are plans to close the Tsukiji fish market in the not-too-distant future, and it will be moved to the Toyosu area. Tourists will have to take the Yurikamome train through Odaiba (or from Odaiba, if they are staying at one of the hotels there). A new station has already been built for the new fish market, as well as a new bridge for truck traffic. A new boardwalk has also been built, which runs from the Lalaport shopping center to where the fish market will one day be.
