Fish market moved from Dosan River shore to Nihonbashi area: Why did you move to Hon Odawara-cho instead of Honbune-cho along the Nihonbashi River?
With the completion of "Edo Minato" by reclaiming mainly in Nihonbashi, the lumber dealer in Michisanborifune-cho was moved to Motozaimokucho (currently near Nihonbashi 1-chome) in Nihonbashi, and the store handling equipment and hemp was Hon Funamachi (Muromachi 1-chome). The green market south of Zenbebashi moved to the opposite bank of Hon Funamachi (Yokkaichimachi), which became former Yokkaichimachi and Aomonomachi, and the Dosan bank became Samurai residence.
The Hajime Mori tribe, who was chased from the Dosanbori riverbank, decided to the Shogunate to move to Hon Funamachi, but was not allowed. This is because ship tools and hemp handling companies have moved as described above.
It is said that during the construction of Edo Castle from Keicho 9 (1604), it was named Odawaracho because Odawara's masonry Zenemon and his colleagues used it as stone Ageba for the stone wall construction of Edo Castle. It seems to be different. It wasn't "Ishiageba", but just the masonry lived. Isecho moat was at a dead end (near just before Fukutoku Inari), and even though the stone was transported here, there was no means of transporting it to Edo Castle, so it did not become Ishi Ageba. Perhaps the stone arrived at the banks of Kamakura and Funabori in Hatchobori, and the mason who lived in Hon-Odawaracho went to work at those Funabori or Edo Castle. Ishigaki-zukuri continued for 15 to 16 years from 1604 to around Genwa 6 (1620).
The main purpose of the relocation of the fish riverbank was Hon Funamachi!
At the beginning of Ieyasu's entry, the Hajime Mori tribe worshiped 500 steps on the banks of Odawara-cho and opened the fish shore. The backing behind Magoemon Mori was "Ando Tsushima Mamoru", which had residences in Nihonbashikoamicho and Koishikawa. When the stone wall was completed, masonry no longer needed to live near Edo Castle, so Tsukiji was forced to relocate to Minami-Odawara-cho, and the Hajime Mori tribe was finally able to relocate.
Hon-Funamachi was originally called O-Funamachi. The name of O Funamachi is in contrast to Kofune-cho, which left the moat, and its origins in Funamachi on the banks of Dosan. Hon Funamachi was Shimo-Funamachi in the town of the Keicho era, and Hon Funamachi was occupied by shops selling ship tools and hemps. Considering the future development potential, I would have wanted to move to Hon Funamachi, but unfortunately it was packed.
