Everyone, do you know why there are no skyscrapers in Ginza?
"It's because the ward office regulates height restrictions," and "Yes, there is a" Ginza rule "."
I didn't have any questions about it about 10 years ago.
I like Ginza, and I like walking not only on Ginza Street, but also on Namiki-dori St. and Marronnier Street, but I didn't think, "Why do you like walking around Ginza?"
It's not just because the sidewalks are well maintained. Eye-friendly space, calm building colors, stylish jackets in windows, etc.
And a pedestrian paradise on Ginza Street. People don't walk in a hurry.
This overlapped, and I felt that I could relax and enjoy the silver bra, so I could think.
Recently, I became interested in pursuing "why there are no skyscrapers in Ginza
?" At that time, I found this book at the Kyobunkan.
The author is Eriko Takezawa, Secretary-General of the Ginza City Planning Council and Ginza Design Council.
This person's lecture had been heard at "Ginza Gaku" at Tsukiji Social Education Center and at the "Environmental Community Development Forum" at the Paper and Pulp Hall.
However, it was not possible to deepen the understanding of the "Ginza Filter" and "Ginza Rules" within a limited time.
After that, I passed the residential land and building transaction manager test, gained new knowledge such as restrictions on development such as district planning, and gained a different interest, and learned about this book.
The composition of this book is as follows.
Chapter 1 What kind of city is Ginza?
Chapter 2 The eve of large-scale development, Ginza in the 1990s
Formulation of the first district plan "Ginza Rules"
Chapter 3 A skyscraper of 200 meters is in Ginza?
"Ginza Town Planning Conference" started in 2004.
Chapter 4 The Voice of Ginza to Government
Chapter 5 New Architecture requires prior consultation with Ginza
Start of the Ginza Design Council
Epilogue

(Impressions and recommendations after reading)
Ginza's history, it is based on the spatial size created by the relationship between the land and buildings of Edo townspeople.
I realize that the cityscape of Ginza has been cherished as a property, so it is fun to walk around Ginza.
In this book, the word "sharing" appears many times. For large-scale development, awareness of the current situation of residents and shop owners, sharing visions for the future, and sharing values.
Regarding the plan to increase the floor of Ginza Mitsukoshi, the question 
of why the installation of an aerial corridor was made clear.
Regarding the plan to rebuild Kabukiza, we also knew why we were able to clear the conventional height limit
.
And the Ginza 6-chome plan is also described in detail.
What the author thought was great and great was not only a wealth of vocabulary, but also a solid description of sentences using adjectives and adverbs. I was amazed that this was the sentence of "Ginza-likeness".
And if he thought he had a great deal of knowledge about the Building Standards Law and urban planning, he said that he had passed through the gates of the university and studied again about what he had been involved in. I really admire you.
We recommend that you subscribe not only to those who live and work in Chuo-ku, but also to architecture, home construction, designers, and people of various genres.
