The bridge plan connecting Kachidokibashi Tsukiji and Tsukishima was modeled on the Futaba Jumping Bridge in Chicago by building a bridge that opened from the beginning. It was the first form in Japan and was the largest in the East. Completion was completed in 1940 as part of a major event that prestige the country for the Tokyo Olympics and the World Exposition. However, since the Sino-Japanese War became violent, only the bridge was completed.
The bounce bridge between the central diameter opened up to 70 degrees, and ships of 3,000 tons were able to sail.
At the time of completion, it was open five times a day for 20 minutes, but the traffic increased and there was no need for large ships to pass through Hashimoto, and in 1970, it became a bridge that did not open. If you open the bridge, it will be a powerful one.
Be sure to take a look at the Sumida River and Kachidokibashi along with shopping, which is right next to Tsukiji Market. It's a nice view.
The center of the bridge is open (collected by the Chuo Ward Kyobashi Library)
