    "description_ja": "高速道路が走り、高層ビルが数多く建ち並ぶ堺筋本町の一角に建つ明治屋ビル。大正13年（1924）に竣工。曽禰中條建築事務所の設計による、細部にまで配慮されたネオ・ルネッサンス様式の建物である。当時、1階は明治18年（1885）に横浜で創業した日本初の輸入食品・洋酒類の専門店「明治屋ストアー」、4・5階は貸し事務所、6・7階にはハイカラな西洋料理屋「中央亭」も併営され、西洋の食料品を買い求める人で賑わっていたそうだ。当時の建物としては珍しく採光、通風、防災にまで考慮され、その使いやすさには定評があったとか。そのほか、建設着工から約1ヵ月後に、関東大震災が起こったため、関係者は鉄材を急きょ強度の高いアメリカのベスレヘム社のものに変更した、というエピソードも伝わっている。2006年から1階の部分は明治屋に代わって、ローソンが開業。",
    "description_en": "The Meidi-ya Building stands in a corner of Sakaisuji-Honmachi among expressways and tall buildings. Finished in Taisho 13 (1924) to the design of the Sone Chujo architectural office, it is a neo-Renaissance building worked out down to the smallest detail. In its day the ground floor held Meidi-ya Store, Japan's first shop for imported food and western drink, founded in Yokohama in Meiji 18 (1885); two floors were offices to let; and two more held a fashionable western restaurant, Chuotei. People came here to buy western groceries. It was unusual for its time in the thought given to daylight, ventilation and fire safety, and had a name for being easy to use. About a month after building began the Great Kanto Earthquake struck, and those in charge are said to have changed the steel in haste to the stronger American Bethlehem product. Since 2006 a Lawson has taken the place of Meidi-ya on the ground floor.",
