Hakozakichoo, Hakozakichō 箱崎町 Hakozaki-Cho district
Chuo, 日本橋 Nihonbashi 箱崎町 Hakozakicho
another spelling is 筥崎.
Nihonbashihakozakicho
This district is closely related to the Shrine 富岡八幡宮 Tomioka Hachimangu on the other side of the river 隅田川 Sumidagawa.
And this Hachimangu has close ties to 筑前国筥崎宮 the Shrine Hakozaki no Miya in Chikuzen (now Fukuoka).
In olden times there was a pond named 箱崎池 Hakozaki Ike in this district.
Around 1640 the land was reclaimed along the river Sumidagawa and in the North were 箱崎町一・二丁目 Hakozaki-cho first and second district, in the West 北新堀町 Kita-Niihori-cho.
In 1665 船見番所 a lookout for ships was built and it became the center of the river transportation.
Around 1690, the younger brother of the rich lumber dealer 奈良屋茂左衛門 Naraya Mozaemon (Nara-Mo) named 安左衛門 Yasuemon erected a row of strong fireproof kura yashiki 蔵屋敷 warehouse living quarters.
In 1698, the bridge 永代橋 Eitaibashi was constructed and even more business concentrated here.
In 1740, the Kurayashiki were bought by 三井家 the Mitsui Family.
