The building above is an old Japanese-era wooden structure that is in the process of being renovated (for what isn't clear at this point). For a long time it was empty building that stood in front of the parking lot to a large supermarket. The store closed a while ago, and I assumed that this building was going to be razed. However, it appears that someone has taken over the property, and has plans that include maintaining the original building. This is a very welcome development as too many Japanese-era wooden buildings end up being replaced by ugly concrete boxes.
