Ginza Terrace's "Midori" [Ginza Mitsukoshi]

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] June 30, 2016 16:00

In the light rain, the green rooftop greening on the 9th floor of Ginza Mitsukoshi on the west side of Ginza Terrace is vivid.

From here in the photo below, you can see Wako's clock tower at this angle.

It is a lawn open space above the Ginza 4-chome intersection.

In a corner of "Terrace Garden", which consists of a lawn open space and a planting space, there are Ginza Susei guardian of children and travelers and Sankai Shrine Ginza auxiliary shrine.

Ginza Succession guardian of children and travelers is a guardian of children and travelers that is said to have been dug out from Sanjumabori at the beginning of the Meiji era.

It was relocated to our office when Ginza Mitsukoshi was newly built in 1968.

Miguri Shrine is said to be the guardian angel of the Mitsui family (the predecessor of Mitsukoshi).

It is said that Kobo Daishi was built, and the soul of Ukayuki is enshrined.

The fact that the white fox went around sacred object of worship three times came to be called "Miguri"

The color leaves of Hugh Kera and geranium in the planting space are also beautiful.

Flower (Tree Geun)

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] June 25, 2016 16:00

rose of sharon is in full bloom

rose of sharon is a deciduous tree of the family Aoiaceae, and is widely planted as garden trees.

The photo shows the planting area in front of a convenience store and the planting area in Shin-ohashi-dori St. under the Tsukiji side of Irifune Bridge.

Flowers are short-lived and are a one-day flower that squeezes in the evening of that day if they bloom in the morning, but they constantly bloom new flowers one after another from summer to autumn.

From here, proverbs such as "Gunka's One Day" and "Gunka's One Dynasty Dream" can be made, and may have been used to mean "a little prosper of just a day."

mukuge05.JPG

It is a flower that suits both Tsuyudoki and midsummer, and Mokichi Saito is in "Aratama".

"It's raining and I'm so happy that I can see from the window."

It's written.

It's the autumn season in Haiku.

Matsuo Basho is "Nozarashi Journey,"

"Mokuge of the Road is a horse."

It's written.

Also, the hot summer is coming.

 

 

Think about the bridge

[Slow of Satsuki's Koi] June 23, 2016 09:00

Kachidokibashi Kachidokibashi, Eitai Bridge Eitaibashi, Kiyosubashi Kiyoshibashi are pronounced as "~bashi", but the nameplates of the bridge are "Kachidokihashi", "Eitaihashi", "Kiyoshihashi". It is written.

For a long time, the pronunciation of "~bashi" is usually cloudy, but I was wondering why the nameplate is written as "~hashi".

This means that the turbid pronunciation of "~bashi" does not mean that the turbidity of the river leads to the turbidity (from a commentary on a TV program).

So, I saw the nameplates of some bridges in Chuo-ku whether they were "~bashi" or "~hashi".

I thought there were many things that wrote "~hashi", but as far as I checked it, it was about the same.

 

 

Child care on the street corner, oriental greenfinch parent and child

[The Rabbit of Tsukuda] June 20, 2016 18:00

It was in late May last month

On the way to Tsukishima Subway Station, I was waiting for a traffic light at the pedestrian crossing of Tsukuda Nikita.

On the other side, there is an uncle who is going to get off the bicycle and look up.

You can hear a very loud voice like Peppy, too.

Then, when I searched for that voice immediately, when planting condominiums,

oriental greenfinch's chicks cling to the thin branches that are likely to reach if they reach out!

Correspondent blog oriental greenfinch 2.jpgMy parents are busy with two birds.

Correspondent blog oriental greenfinch. jpgCorrespondent blog oriental greenfinch 1.jpgBoth cars and buses come and go, leading to the Yaesu Exit of Tokyo Station.

It's quite a bit of an urban child-raising.

Mr. oriental greenfinch's child-rearing period is as fast as two weeks.

I want you to grow up with peace of mind.

That voice, Mr. Onaga

[The Rabbit of Tsukuda] June 20, 2016 12:00

The beginning of today's awakening to the singing of the birds

It's a time when the cute and slightly livelyness and the river surface of the Sumida River sparkle.

 

That's a big one, sir.

The owner of a wild voice that blows drowsiness is ... Onaga.

Correspondent blog Onaga June. jpgThe black cap and the white accent of the long light blue tail feather is wonderful!

It is a bird that can be seen all year round, and he likes near human life and does not live in a real natural forest.

That's why they come to our parks in Tokyo.

Correspondent blog June Onaga 3.jpgAnd strangely, since 1980, I can't see it here in West Japan.

For birdwatchers in Kansai, it's one of the birds you'd like to see!

You can see such a precious Onaga around us~.

Correspondent blog June Onaga 2.jpgIf you hear it's guyy,

Why don't you look for Mr. Onaga?

A big project was announced in the area of Sukiyabashi intersection, which just opened in March this year, Tokyu Plaza Ginza.

sonita06.JPG

The Ginza Sony Building facing the Sukiyabashi intersection is said to be demolished and renewed.

The business plan "Ginza Sony Park Project" has been announced.

sonita02.jpg

The current building will be closed at the end of March next year, and the site will be used as an event space "Ginza Sony Park" from 2018 to 20 years, and a new building will be opened in the fall of 2022.

sonita03.jpg

Sony Showroom, Sony Store Ginza, and Sony Imaging Gallery Ginza in the same building will be relocated to the newly constructed Ginza Place (GINZA PLACE) building (opening September 24 this year) at the Ginza 4-chome intersection.

sonita07.JPG

The Ginza 6-chome Project is currently underway in two blocks, including the site of the Matsuzakaya Ginza Store, facing the Chuo-dori line of the "Ginza Place" (pictured below, red arrow).

sonita05.jpg

This is a redevelopment project that integrates Ginza 6-chome 10th and 11th, and consists of commercial facilities, large-scale offices, cultural and exchange facilities, etc., and once completed, it will become the largest large-scale complex in the Ginza area You.

sonita01.jpg

The building is scheduled to be completed at the end of January 2017, and the Kanze Noh Theater, a commercial facility and cultural exchange facility, is scheduled to open in the spring of 2017.

Nihonbashi has changed, Kyobashi has changed, and Ginza has changed.

The speed of change in Chuo-ku is really amazing.
