History

The building was constructed before the Second World War and is in the Imperial Crown style, a mixture of western and traditional Japanese architecture. The close proximity to Nagoya Castle is reflected in the decorative roof of the structure. It is located right next to Nagoya City Hall.

The building survived the U.S. air raids of World War II.
