In this "Marugoto Museum" bus route, we explored a little bit of "Kojunsha Street" that crosses at Ginza 6-7 chome on Sotobori-dori St. and Showa-dori.
The name "Kojunsha" was established by Yukichi Fukuzawa in 1880 (Meiji 13) and is Japan's first membership social club for politicians and business owners. The name of Kojunsha was derived from Yukichi Fukuzawa's slogan, "Exchange knowledge and consult about social affairs."
The old building was completely destroyed by the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 (Daisho 12), and in 1929 (Showa 4), the complex building was rebuilt as the second generation clubhouse building.
After 70 years, it was decided to rebuild due to aging and earthquake resistance, and it was dismantled in 2002, and the current Kojun building opened in October 2004. The 1st to 5th floors of the basement will be the commercial facility "Kojun Building DININGS & STORES", shops such as "Bedding Order Shop IWATA Ginza Store", and restaurants such as "Akasaka Rikyu" and "Ningyocho Imahan Ginza Store" are occupied. The 6th to 8th floors are offices, and the 9th and 10th floors are Kojunsha.
According to the company's website, Barneys New York was founded in 1923 by Bernie Presman on 7th Street 17th Street in Manhattan, and now it has 30 stores (including CO-OP and outlet stores) in the United States, including the 6th store in Japan (including the 5th store in Japan, including the 6th store in Japan) and the 1st store in September 1 in Japan.
"Bedding tailoring store IWATA Ginza Store" is the first directly managed store in Tokyo in Iwata, a long-established bedding store in Kyoto that has been making bedding since the first year of Tempo (1830) in Kyoto for 180 years.
"Monoshiri Encyclopedia" introduces this third-generation building as "a smart measure of using a part of the facade at the main entrance that makes you feel the architectural beauty of the time in the new building" (page 63).
