Be a star that shines
toward the future
One hundred and thirty-seven years. toward the future
This red is a color symbolizing
the passage of time.
This place embodies accumulated aspirations.
Stars never fade. Neither do memories.
This is why we don’t simply preserve it.
From here, we make it shine.
To inherit is to move forward.
To protect is to continue to love.
And now, the Red Brick Building is reborn
with a renewed appearance.
To illuminate the future of Hokkaido
and its people.
