    Due to the expansion and maintenance project of Hirosaki Civic Center Square (Motoji-cho, Hirosaki City), the adjoining building is currently being demolished.

    Citizen's Central Square is close to Hirosaki Park, across from the main building of the Former Fifty-Nine Bank Head Office, which is an important cultural property. A Neputa hut will be set up during the Hirosaki Neputa Festival in the multipurpose open space. The expansion maintenance project will expand 1500 square meters. There was a plan to relocate the Hirosaki old library, but now it is blank and the trend is drawing attention.

    There are 5 companies that have evacuated due to dismantling work. Kowa Real Estate, which had been operating in the same building since it was founded in 1966, moved to Chikamachi. According to the president Hideki Takahashi, "Sakura Odori, Hirosaki City was built on the site of the Hirosaki Police Station that was relocated in 1959 (Showa 34) due to city planning. It was a building that was created at that time. There were sales offices such as cosmetics stores and newspaper stores."

    Remodeling consulting company "HOMEY" moved to "Office Hirosaki Park" (former Nagamachi) next to Hirosaki Court. In the company's office, about 10,000 Star Wars merchandise owned by the president, Mitsuto Mikami, are on display, and I recall that it was difficult to move. "The new office is all about Star Wars," Mikami said. "There are also menus such as Star Wars crosses and shoji sticks, which are also used to introduce our main business," he smiles.

    Hirosaki City will announce an expansion project plan for the plaza during this year.
