歴史的風景遺産富士見坂の眺望を守ってくださる個人・企業・財団・行政を探しています

東京都心にただ一つ残つた、地上から富士山が眺められる場所、日暮里富士見坂の眺望が、今、失われようとしています。
 文京区本郷通りで建設中の13階建てのワンルームマンションか完成すると、富士山の左側の稜線が隠され、富士見坂からの眺望が破壊されてしまいます。研究者の調査では、せめて9階建てまでならば、その景観は保全されることがわかっています。
 4月9日には、一気に鉄骨が13階まで建ち上がる予定で、もはや一刻の猶予もありません。
 建築主の日本鋼管不動産(株)は、「高さ変更による損益金(4億5000万円)の支払いか、ビル購入(12億円)が、計画見直しの条件」といっています。
 このため、日暮里富士見坂を守る会では、現在、親会社である日本鋼管(株)にこの事業を引き継ぎ、新たに景観保全型の事業を展開してくださるようお願いしているところですが、同時に歴史的風景遺産・富士見坂の跳望を守るため、このビルを買い取ってくださる個人・企業・財団・行政機関を探してもいます。
 心当たりのある方は、至急下記までご連絡ください。

CITIZENS ALLIANCE TO SAVE FUJI-VIEW

 Tokyo used to have many places to see Mt. Fuji, all white in snow or silhouetted at sunset. Shogun Ieyasu considered Mt. Fuji in his city planning in the late 16th century. Hiroshige and Hokusai always included the mountain in their renditions of Edo.
 The historic view has mostly been lost today to mushrooming high-rises. There is, however, one exception, which is Fujimi-zaka slope near Nippori station on JR Keihin Tohoku line. The narrow slope descends from a venerable old shrine to a Shitamachi town, where traditional craftsmen live and mom-and-pop shops thrive. Standing at the top, you can see the noble mountain soaring above the crowded city. Children see it on their way to and from a local school, and visitors feel much comfort at the sight of Japan's symbol mountain.
 This view is now threatened by a construction project. A 13 story high condominium building under construction on the Hongo-dori, Bunkyo-ku 1.5 kilometers away, will hide the mountain's left-hand slope now visible from Fujimi-zaka. The steel framework will go up to 13 floors on April 9, 2000. If it stops at the 9th level, the view will not be damaged.
 We, Citizens Alliance to Protect the View of Mt. Fuji from Tokyo, think it important to preserve this historic view. We have been negotiating with NKF, the constructor, for the revision of their plan. The company has asked for \450,000,000 in compensation for an estimated loss due to our proposed revision, or, purchase of the whole building at \1,200,000,000. We are also negotiating with NKF's parent, NKK, the third largest steel maker in Japan, to take over the project and limit the building to 9 floors.
 We are searching for supporters. Please contact us at the addresses given below. If you know of any individual, corporation, foundation, or administrative organization that may be interested in buying this building, please let us know.
