A Symbol Of Revival! A Beautiful Station Building Imaged flying Japanese GullJR Onagawa Station
After the devastating damage by the Great East Japan Earthquake, it was rebuilt 4 years later. The new station building designed by Shigeru Ban has a characteristic white curved roof that images Japanese gulls. It has become a new spot of Onagawa as a symbol of revival.◎After the damage, it was moved to 200m inward place and extended 7~9m up the ground. In a three-storied building, there're station, foot bath, municipal onsen facility and a store of the local specialties.
