Great Tokyo Reconstruction Model (1929)
I went to the "Tokyo Bridge and Civil Engineering Exhibition" (sponsored by the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Construction) held at the Shinjuku Station West Exit Plaza Event Corner from August 28 to August 31, 2019. In addition to the bridges spanning the Sumida River, many panels and models of bridges in Tokyo were exhibited.
The most eye-catching thing was the "Large Tokyo Reconstruction Model" (production: Shimazu Manufacturing) exhibited at the "Teito Reconstruction Exhibition" hosted by the Tokyo Municipal Government Research Council in 1929. . This is a 1/5,000 scale three-dimensional model with the terrain expressed and the streets, architecture, bridges, etc. are created in detail. Of course, it is more powerful than you can see it on the map. It is said to be the museum. You can watch the elaborate models all the time.
In addition, the “Yamanote Line 29 Station yard Model” (1/500 scale) created by the Tamura Laboratory of Showa Women's University was also a highlight.
