The other day, I investigated what I was interested in to guide the Tsukishima area. I would like to introduce some interesting themes that I introduced in a series. The first one is an incredible theme that "" Kachidoki Harumi "is Tsukishima."
In 1889, the municipal and municipal systems were enforced as administrative divisions of Tokyo Prefecture, and Tokyo City was established. . The current area equivalent to Chuo-ku has been divided into Nihonbashi-ku and Kyobashi-ku. In 1943, Tokyo Prefecture and Tokyo City were abolished, and Tokyo was newly established, and these two wards were under the direct control of Tokyo along with the other 33 wards, but in 1947 (1947) These two wards merged into Chuo-ku.
Kyobashi Ward was abolished in 1947, and the "Tsukishima / Kachidoki / Harumi" area was a horizontal area from Tsukishima 1-chome to 12-chome. For example, Tsukishima-dori 1-12-chome is located.
1-6-chome was added in 1892 (Meiji 25), 7-1-chome was added in 1894 (Meiji 27), and 12-chome was added in 1913 (Daisho 2). Was.
Tsukishima Nishinakamichi, Tsukishima Nishikawashidori, Tsukishima Higashinakamichi, and Tsukishima Nishikawashidori also went through the same process of specifying Choban. Looking at the current street name, it is as follows.
The area of Kachidoki 1-chome to Kachidoki 6-chome and Harumi was all Tsukishima before Showa 40 (1965). For this reason, the facilities built before this period still have the name "Tsukishima" even though they are currently in Kachidoki and Harumi. For example, Tsukishima Daini Elementary School, Tsukishima Daiichi Elementary School, Tsukishima Police Station, Tsukishima Fire Station, etc. In addition, even private companies can see the name "Tsukishima" as a branch name.
The following map shows an example of public institutions where the Tsukishima name remains.

From the next time, we will continue to talk about "water residents" from the beginning of the Showa era, the beaches of Minakami Elementary School, Tsukishima, and "Sometimes, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building may have been in the Harumi district." Here's one side of Tsukishima, which has unique features not found in other districts.
