[About the Building]
The warehouse of HUG is made of "Sapporo- Nanseki." "Nanseki" means soft stones.
In 1931, it was constructed as a storage house of the vegetable wholesaler "Yuzaki Tsunejiro Store."
After that, it had used in many ways: a storehouse of the brush company, a restaurant, and a cafe.
It has been reproduced using original stones even once it was dismantled.
