Let's walk around Nihonbashi at New Year [Mitsukoshi Main Store / Takashimaya] Tokyo Walking Tour

Walk from Kyobashi to Nihonbashi and experience the beautiful scenery of the "100 shaku line". Start from Kyobashi Edogrand, which was built through large-scale redevelopment. As you walk through the neatly lined up buildings, you will see the huge store "Nihonbashi Takashimaya S.C." that occupies an entire block. Beyond that is "Nihonbashi," where the Metropolitan Expressway above is being constructed to be underground, and the long-established stores "Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store," "Bank of Japan," and "Mitsui Main Building," which have been in business since the Edo period. Come and walk with us through the town that has flourished as a commercial and financial center since the Edo period, where many historical buildings remain, and where convenience and a relaxed atmosphere coexist. "100 shaku line" This is a phenomenon in which the skylines of buildings built in the Meiji, Taisho, and Showa periods, which were built in accordance with the restriction of "building heights within 100 shaku ≒ 31 m" of the Urban Buildings Act, which preceded the Building Standards Act, formed a clean urban landscape by aligning the eaves line at 100 shaku. Even in the construction of large-scale buildings in recent redevelopment projects, this 100-shaku line has been inherited, and the unity of the landscape design has been maintained by adopting designs such as aligning the base to this 31m while switching the facade design of the building parts above it. Department store architecture that brings together the beauty of the past and present, "Nihonbashi Takashimaya S.C." The main building was built according to a design proposal for "modern architecture based on oriental tastes," and features a solid Western style with Japanese decorative designs such as rafters, elbow beams, and frog legs throughout. After several extensions and renovations after the war, a modern glass block wall was added to the south side, and the beautiful harmony of the old and new was hailed as a masterpiece of Showa architecture. There are many things to see not only in the exterior, but also in the facilities and interior, such as the bellows-type elevator that has remained unchanged since the bridge was built. Its original appearance, which blends East and West, and past and present, is also a symbol of Nihonbashi, which strives for the coexistence of tradition and innovation. Pioneer of department store architecture in Japan, Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi Main Store Japan's first department store. When the new building, made of reinforced concrete with five floors above ground and one floor below ground, was built in 1914, it was praised as the largest building east of the Suez Canal. In particular, the latest equipment such as escalators, elevators, heating and ventilation, and the magnificent central hall with a light-filled ceiling attracted a lot of attention and became the foundation of department store architecture thereafter. In 1927, in addition to the repairs following the Great Kanto Earthquake, the West Building and East Building were expanded. The exterior was also renovated in a Renaissance style with earthquake resistance in mind, and the Mitsukoshi Hall (now the Mitsukoshi Theater), with a total of 678 seats, was opened on the 6th and 7th floors of the East Building. The gorgeous yet simple American Renaissance "Mitsui Main Building" Modeled after the Mellon Bank headquarters in Pittsburgh, USA, the seven-story, two-floor reinforced concrete structure was designed and constructed to withstand an earthquake twice as strong as the Great Kanto Earthquake, based on the lessons learned from the disaster. Designed with the motto of "magnificence, dignity, simplicity," the building is a masterpiece, with Corinthian columns surrounding the exterior, Doric columns inside, lavish use of marble on the columns and floors, and intricate ceiling decorations, and still retains its sublime appearance to this day. In addition, when it was completed, the world's first fully air-conditioned building was installed, and cutting-edge technology was also used in terms of facilities. 『Re-uploading of my content is not allowed.
