滝ともはるの横浜歴史散歩 横浜の副都心上大岡

Kamiooka, Yokohama's leading sub-center, has become a popular residential area with skyscrapers and shopping centers lining the station. 19 pieces of public art by famous artists such as Nara Yoshitomo and Murakami Takashi have been created around the station, and a huge bus terminal has also been built, connecting it to the surrounding area. However, when the station first opened, only about 20 passengers a day passed by, and the surrounding area was fields and a completely bare area. People supported its development by attracting a red-light district, but it was precisely because there was nothing that it grew so rapidly as a new town. #Kamiooka #NaraYoshitomo #TakiTomoharu
