A two-storey concrete clinic sits flush with the wet road. Grey rendered walls rise between vertical pilasters. Tan brick lines the lower facade. The entrance canopy, corrugated steel painted blue, sags under years of Hokkaido snow. Green kanji characters mounted above the doors read right to left in the old style. Most windows are frosted or curtained. One upper pane is boarded with timber. A red brick chimney breaks the roofline. Rain darkens the asphalt. No light inside.

Streetscapes of Yubari

2018 · 54 photographs

Yūbari is a coal-mining city in central Hokkaido. Founded in 1943, its population peaked at around 120,000 in the 1960s and now sits at about 6,400. The colliery closed in the 1980s. The city's attempt to recover through tourism failed; in 2007 it became the first Japanese municipality to declare bankruptcy, owing 35.3 billion yen. These streetscapes were taken between the houses, shops, and schools the town no longer needs - most empty, some half-collapsed, some still in use by the people who stayed.
