Geocache Description:

Yabase shopping center is a shopping center in Yabase district of Akita City.
This cache is located on this site. Please bring your own pen.

 


Yabase shopping center was opened in 1998. It is a shopping center with over 10 specialty stores.
Akita citizens are dependent on the automobile as a transportation device due to aging. Therefore, shopping center having a large parking lot became the main commercial facility.
By the way, this site has a half-elliptical shape. Becausere it was racetrack here about 60 years from now. Half of the site of the racetrack became Teikoku Oil Akita mining office, and the other half became residential areas, etc. And now, the site of Teikoku Oil Akita mining office becomes Yabase shopping center.

八橋ショッピングセンターは,秋田市八橋地区にあるショッピングセンターです。
キャッシュはこの敷地内にあります。ペンをご持参ください。

八橋ショッピングセンターは,1998年に開業した,専門店10店以上が集まるショッピングセンターです。
秋田市民は高齢化と共に移動手段が自動車中心となり,広い駐車場を有したショッピングセンターが主な商業施設となってきました。ところで,ここの敷地は半楕円形をしています。それは今から60年ほど前まで,ここが競馬場だったからです。競馬場跡地は半分が帝国石油秋田鉱業所となり,残り半分は住宅地などになりました。そして現在,帝国石油秋田鉱業所跡地が八橋ショッピングセンターとなりました。
