A space where you can feel the former outer moat

When you head toward the Imperial Hotel in front of Ginza Miyuki Street Yasuaki Elementary School, you will immediately have an elevated expressway, followed by a JR elevated bridge. Between these two elevated tracks (on the left side), a thin and long space of about 2.3m wide and about 300m long extends far to the vicinity of the Shinsaiwai Bridge intersection. On the left side of the photo is the Tokyo Kosoku Doro, and on the right side is the elevated JR Tokaido Shinkansen. (However, because it is a dedicated area of the expressway company, only related parties can pass.) This is the site of the former outer moat, and it is quite down, so the bottom of the moat of outer moat is also imaged. Since 1953, Tokyo Kosoku Doro Co., Ltd. has filled outer moat in this area to build an elongated building and a highway on it. On the other hand, JR built a brick viaduct in this area by 1914, and then expanded, passing through the Tokaido Shinkansen on the elevated bridge closest to the expressway (to make it in time for the 1964 Tokyo Olympics). Was. For this reason, the expressway and the JR Shinkansen will run parallel at a close distance, and as shown in the photo, there is a narrow and long space between them.
