History of the weight hall
The National Stadium, which began in 2014 with a 56-year history. There was also a training ground for weightlifting World Cup medalists and all-Japan players. However, with the end of the National Stadium, the weightlifting practice area has also moved. In March 2014, an alternative weightlifting practice facility opened on the second floor of this building as Nihonbashi Weightlift Club. The sleeve sign called "Weightlifting Hall" seems to have been attached at that time.
At the stage of last year (2017), it was confirmed that Nihonbashi Weight Club had already withdrawn from this building, and the name of Nihonbashi Weight Club at the entrance of the building was erased. Only the sleeve sign of "Weightlifting Hall" remained lonely. Therefore, due to the demolition and renovation of the building this time, the signboard will not be seen only a few more.
And the fact that the lunch shop on the first floor of the building had been working hard at this place for 21 years is something deeply moved in another sense. Thank you very much.
