In Tokyo, many special nursing homes (care homes for the elderly) have been built on the sites of former elementary schools.
In Tokyo, if there’s an open call for public-private partnerships, large corporations would gather in large numbers.
However, public facilities in depopulated and mountainous areas are struggling with repurposing.
These facilities were created with tax funding for regional employment promotion and tourism, so they are difficult to repurpose.
Declining population, changes in tourism demand, and the aging of the buildings.
They no longer fit the times.
Labor costs associated with maintenance are high.
There are no longer enough people to work or use these facilities.
Demolishing them is also quite costly.
What if the government office buildings were relocated?
What if they were opened to art students from local universities as art-in-residence spaces?
What if they were provided as land for rebuilding hospitals or welfare facilities?
What if they were transformed into disaster prevention parks or storage facilities?
These are the only ideas I can come up with.
Anyway, it might be safer to demolish these facilities, even if it means increasing taxes.
To the municipalities in trouble, please feel free to consult with me.
I propose the “Medical, Welfare, Education, and Cultural Complex Plaza" as a solution.
We will hold film festivals and art festivals.
Leave it to me.
