It is necessary to increase the number of nursery schools in order to solve the problem of waiting children, but it is difficult to secure new nursery school sites, so the "park three-dimensional plan" is progressing. . It is said that a white feather was set up in the plan to build a nursery school at Mizutanibashi Park in Chuo Ward, Ginza, and make the rooftop a park. It is said that this is the first time in Japan. Mizutani Bridge Park is a 760-square-meter park in the office area and has no noticeable playground equipment, but we often see office workers taking a break on benches surrounded by trees and OLs spreading lunch boxes.
According to the plan, there are about 80 nursery schools, and it seems that there will be a temporary custody for shoppers gathering from outside the city on weekends. Construction will start in 2017 and aim to open it in April 2019.
By the way, the number of waiting children in Chuo-ku was 263, an increase of 144 compared to last year's 119. More than half of the approximately 1,700 households in the ward with one-year-old children want to enter a nursery school, mainly in tower apartments on the Gulf, have increased the number of dual-income households in their 30s and 40s, mainly in the bay area. It would be nice if Mizutani Bridge Park's three-dimensional construction (opening a nursery school) solves the problem of waiting children even a little, and it would be a successful case.
