1. Erected in 1937 within the Tokiwadai residential neighborhood of Itabashi Ward, Tokyo, near the former Musashi-Tokiwa Station (now Tokiwadai Station) on the Tobu-Tojo Line, the Tokiwadai Photo Studio stands as a rare example to the vision that architects and city planners held for Tokyo’s rebirth following the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923.

This brief read will require just about 2 minutes of your time. Additionally, I’ve included Google Maps links and references to the original sources in both English and Japanese, which you can find here: [https://www.pix4japan.com/blog/20231025-edo-bldg-museum](https://www.pix4japan.com/blog/20231025-edo-bldg-museum) (two-minute read).
