Abstract

 TAHARA Shinnosuke was known as the designer of the Yamagata Prefectural Government Building and the Assembly Hall, which are nationally designated important cultural properties. “Restoration of Yamagata Prefectural Government Building and Assembly Hall Vol. 1” (hereinafter referred to as “Restoration”) shows TAHARA's history and career, and lists the names of his works involved. By the way, TAHARA became the apprentice of Condor from an early stage and worked at the Condor office, so many of the works that TAHARA engaged in can be considered as Condor’s works.

 However, in the past, 16 cases considered to be Condor’s work and shown only in TAHARA's career were considered “unclear whether planned or implemented”. That was because only the construction name was quoted from TAHARA's “CV” in “Restoration”.

 Therefore, this article considered TAHARA's original “CV”, and examined 16 constructions. As a result, the French Embassy was not described in the original “CV”, and the Yokohama Yamashita-cho 5 ban Club Hotel was judged to be the same building as the Yokohama Yamashita-cho United Club. The following is an overview of the remaining 14 works. Of the 14 cases, 7 of Tsukiji Metropole Hotel, Yokohama Yamashita-cho 85 ban Maples Club, Yokohama Yamashita-cho 101 ban seicha kaisha souko oyobi seichaba, Yokohama Yamashita-cho kou 90 bankan Uotaa shi shokai, Yokohama Yamashita-cho 30 bankan, Akasaka-ku Omote-cho Shippa shi jutaku, Yokohama Yamashita-cho 111 ban US Navy Coal Storage are Conder’s works that TAHARA was involved in the construction. The Mitsubishi sha Osaka shiten was the work of SONE Tatsuzo, although TAHARA was involved in the construction, and Waseda Okuma hakushaku tei onshitsu was the work of TAHARA himself. And four cases of Aoyama-gakuin kosha oyobi kishukusha, Yokohama Yamashita-cho A 3 ban Robinson shokai oyobi soko, Yokohama Yamashita-cho 8 ban Standard shokai, Kojimachi-ku Eiraku-cho Takada shokai honten have not been implemented, and Yokohama kyoryuchi 30 bankan dai 1 gou oyobi dai 2 gou soko warehouse is unknown.
