The drugstore “Cocokara Fine Hanshin Fukae Station Store”, currently being built under the elevated tracks right by the ticket gates at Hanshin Fukae Station, is apparently scheduled to open on Saturday, March 18〜
↑ The exterior of “Cocokara Fine Hanshin Fukae Station Store”
↑ A poster announcing the opening date and the “Higashinada Kokashita” logo were posted there.
↑ They’re also posted at the south-side entrance.
Here’s the map↓
The address is 4-1-8 Fukae Kitamachi, Nada-ku, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture.
It looks like the area under the Hanshin Main Line elevated tracks between Uozaki Station and Ashiya Station will be used as “Higashinada Kokashita”
Quoted from the press release
↑ It seems they’ll gradually make use of the roughly 3.5 km space under the elevated tracks from Hanshin Main Line Uozaki Station to Ashiya Station as “Higashinada Kokashita”〜
Quoted from the press release
↑ A logo has also been chosen, inspired by the connections between the four stations that make up Higashinada Kokashita (Uozaki, Ogi, Fukae, and Ashiya), as well as the mountains and sea.
Lastly
We’re looking forward to the opening of Cocokara Fine (and its opening sale), but we’re also curious to see how “Higashinada Kokashita” will be used going forward〜. Maybe some kind of commercial facility will be built between Fukae and Ashiya too? Can’t wait!
