Street scenery where you can see Usawa House pine trees

There is a Japanese-style house at Irifune 1-chome. This is the home of Mr. Uzawa, the owner of Torabu Shoten, which was a tuna wholesaler on the Tsukiji Fish Bank. The previous generation was also the chairman of Motomachi of Irifune 1-chome Town Association. When I was a child, my hometown was a child, I went up to my home and played, and I wasn't two times. The view of the pine trees over the fence is a wonderful view of downtown. I heard from Uzawa's husband that it was used to shoot "Return to Carmen's Hometown" starring Hideko Takamine, Japan's first total natural color movie, released in 1946. A quick and awkward mother also remembered that photography was taking place on this fence and the road in front of the pine. The demolition work of Usawa House, which has become one of the 100 most modern building surveys in Chuo-ku, will begin in February this year.
