Buildings of the Heisei era

[CAM] December 19, 2018 14:00

 I visited "Buildings of the Heisei era", which is listed in "Main Events in Chuo-ku" at the end of "Monoshiri Encyclopedia".

 First of all, "Silver Koi Monument". The song "The Story of Love in Ginza" became a big hit in 1961 (1961), but this monument was erected in 1990 (1990) (page 39 of Monoshiri Encyclopedia).

 The Chuo-ohashi Bridge was built in 1994 (1994). Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge was built in 1964 before the Tokyo Olympics (1964), which abolished the ferry, but due to the bridge between Chuo-ohashi Bridge, traffic from Tsukuda Island to Tokyo Station has become more convenient (page 60 of Monoshiri Encyclopedia), page 60, page 1.

A "messenger statue" is installed on the pier in the center of the bridge.

 Kibikicho Square, located on the second basement floor, directly connected to Tokyo Metro Higashi-Ginza Station, offers souvenirs unique to Kabukiza and also serves as a facility to accommodate those who cannot return home in the event of a disaster.

 The establishment of "Tsukiji Ohashi" was in 2014 (2014). As a result, Motohashi became the first bridge from the mouth of the Sumida River.
