One day during the lunch break, I was taking a walk from the Nihonbashikakigaracho office across the Sumida River in Koto-ku. Suddenly, an old iron bridge name plate and an explanation sign appeared. According to the signboard, it is a bridge nameplate of Shin-ohashi Bridge built in 1912, and the upper front of the Koto-ku side until it was replaced with the current Shinohashi (completed in 1977)). It seems that it was decorated. The letters are written from right to left as "Shino Hohashi".
At the time of rebuilding the bridge, local people, mainly the Koto Ward Yanagawa Elementary School PTA, hope to preserve this bridge name plate as a memorial to the bridge that has been popular as a symbol of the town, It is said that it will be stored on the site of.
Yanagawa Elementary School is located just across Shinohashi from Nihonbashihamacho.
