  • Little Saigon, Japantown, Chinatown – International District Vision 2030
    Little Saigon, Japantown, Chinatown – International District Vision 2030 A Community Response to the Preliminary Recommendations of the “South Downtown Livable Communities Study” June 2006 Thomas Im Edgar Yang Don Mar Tuck Eng Paul Lee Alan Cornell Paul Mar Stella Chao Sue Taoka Fen Hsiao Joyce Pisnanont Mike Olson Tomio Moriguchi Ken Katahira Virgil Domaoan Joe Nabberfeld 1 Little Saigon, Japantown, and Chinatown/International District Vision 2030 Executive Summary The City of Seattle initiated the Livable South Downtown study in 2005 as an extension of the Center City Initiative, a plan to increase housing capacity and economic activity in the downtown core. After several meetings with twenty-five South Downtown community stakeholders, the City released a draft report in January 2006, outlining land use and rezoning recommendations. An alliance of Little Saigon, Japantown, and Chinatown-International District stakeholders met to discuss the report and agreed that the City needed to broaden its scope of work, as well as its vision for the neighborhood. The community went through a visioning process and produced a narrative document called Vision 2030 (in reference to the year 2030). This vision builds on the recommendations and values of the 1998 Chinatown-International District Neighborhood Plan. This vision document describes the Little Saigon, Japantown, Chinatown-International District in the year 2030 as a healthy, vital, and vibrant community supported by safe, pedestrian-friendly streets, new and improved open spaces, and a diverse array of retail stores that support the variety of people who live in the area. Vision 2030 also advocates for a balanced mix of neighborhood housing options, ranging from condos for empty nesters to affordable family housing units.

  • Seattle Report
    EPA: CARE Level I Final Report International District CARE Project Community elder shares her perspectives at the first CARE partner meeting, 2005 Better Housing, Happier Lives, Stronger Communities _____________________________________________________________________________________________ 606 Maynard Avenue South, Suite 105 . Seattle WA 98104 . Tel (206) 623-5132 . Fax: (206) 623-3479 . www.idhousingalliance.org Grantee: International District Housing Alliance Project location: Seattle’s Chinatown-International District, Seattle, WA – King County Project title: International District CARE Project Grant period: October 1, 2005 to September 30, 2007 Project Manager: Joyce Pisnanont EPA Project Officer: Sally Hanft Personal Reflection: Reflecting on the past two years of the ID CARE project, it is evident that our community has had many wonderful successes, as well as a fair share of challenges. Our successes included a tremendous amount of culturally relevant outreach and education and the development of a strong core of community leadership amongst limited English speaking populations. Our greatest challenges were maintaining the momentum of the work in the face of organizational restructuring (in year 2) and growing anti-immigrant sentiments nationwide that inhibited civic participation on the part of our immigrant youth and elders. Perhaps our greatest area for improvement is the partnership development piece. Since 2005, IDHA has successfully garnered many new partnerships, but needs to strengthen our project advisory committee so as to be truly representative of the multiple community stakeholders that are essential for driving the project forward. This became most clear during our recent CARE National Training in Atlanta, GA. In listening to the successes and challenges of other CARE grantees, it became evident where the ID community’s strengths lay, and where we could have done many things differently.

  • Kinmon Gakuen (Golden State Institute, Inc.)
    CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO LONDON N. BREED, MAYOR OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR Legacy Business Registry Staff Report HEARING DATE AUGUST 12, 2019 KINMON GAKUEN (GOLDEN STATE INSTITUTE, INC.) Application No.: LBR-2018-19-065 Business Name: Kinmon Gakuen (Golden Gate Institute, Inc.) Business Address: 2031 Bush Street District: District 5 Applicant: Richard Hashimoto, Board Member Nomination Date: May 17, 2019 Nominated By: Supervisor Vallie Brown Staff Contact: Richard Kurylo [email protected] BUSINESS DESCRIPTION Kinmon Gakuen was founded as a Japanese language school in 1910 in Japantown. A core group of activists from the Japanese American Association established the organization to support educational opportunities for their children who were denied access to the public school system due to their race. The first location was a rented house at 2301 Bush Street. In 1918, a group of Japanese American citizen advocates met with the Japanese Consulate to make plans for a permanent building for Kinmon Gakuen. In 1924, Kinmon Gakuen legally became recognized as Golden Gate Institute, Inc., a State of California organization, and, in 1926, the building at 2031 Bush Street was completed. Acts of violence and discrimination against Japanese Americans continued to escalate well into the 1940s. Leading up to World War II, tensions between the United States and Japan were steadily increasing, and Japanese language schools, including Kinmon Gakuen, were under intense scrutiny for their suspected involvement in "anti-American" activities and the assumption that they promoted a Japanese nationalist ideology. Soon after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States began to impression Japanese "enemy aliens" based on race.

  • Seattle's Little Tokyo: Bundan Fiction and the Japanese Diaspora
    6 Reading Shiisei in the Provinces paper demonstrated the hegemony of the Tokyo bundan (literary coterie). Shiisei's goal of improving the level of tsuzoku shosetsu was an enlightened one and made him a writer caught Seattle's Little Tokyo: between worlds: Tokyo and the provinces, literature as art and consumer product. But while he was in the capital, he wrote fiction that could not be read in the capital and viewed his contacts with joumalists of regional papers as quite important. Most of Shiisei's fiction depicted the Bundan Fiction and the Japanese Diaspora struggles and troubles of people caught drifting back and forth between the provinces and the capital. We could say that he showed the cultural and political gaps between the provinces and Tokyo so they could be seen in the pages of newspaper fiction. But as information about the Tokyo center filled the regional papers these gaps and cultural differences were pushed out of the Ted Mack newspapers and the depiction of this gap disappeared. University of Washington Shiisei serially published his work Shukuzu in the Miyako Shimbun, which as the name su�gests was a newspaper of the capital. But this newspaper's nickname was the Karyii Shimbun, as It centered on stories about entertainment news and the licensed districts. Although it was published in the capital it would be better to view this newspaper as just another regional paper, In 2004, Harvard University Press published The World Republic ofLetters, an English although with the region being Tokyo. At the end of his career Shiisei had come full circle translation of Pascale Casanova's 1999 La Republique mondiale des Lettres.1 The book enjoyed ' returning to a "local" newspaper.

    MOMENTUM Collection The Global Platform for Time-Based Art: Film/Video, New Media, Performance and Sound Title of Work: Altar of the East 1. Tokamak (2016), photograph on aludibond, 150 x 100 cm 2. The Constructor (2016), photograph on aludibond, 150 x 100 cm 3. Altar of the East (2018) photograph on aludibond, 100 x 150 cm Artist: Almagul Menlibayeva Edition: Special Edition for MOMENTUM Tokamak depicts the KTM Tokamak, the experimental materials-testing thermonuclear fusion reactor that started operation at the National Nuclear Center in Kurchatov, Kazakhstan in June 2017. As well as being a celebration of the triumph of new technology, this work also evokes memories of the nuclear arms race during the Cold War, in particular Kurchatov’s central role in the Soviet-era nuclear weapons tests. It is seen here alongside post-independence Kazakhstan’s ambitious plans for the development of nuclear power. The image Altar of the East, depicts the Soviet-era control panel in Kurchatov for detonating nuclear weapons. The iconic ‘Button’ of Cold War dread is pictured in this triptych of images as a relic of a past era giving way to a future of science and technology where women play the central roles, as depicted in The Constructor, a photo-collage superimposing a woman’s face onto images of the construction of Kazakhstan’s new capital Astana. This tryptich was shown in 2018 in Bread & Roses: Four Generations of Kazakh Women Artists, an exhibition organized by MOMENTUM in partnership with the National Museum of the Republic of Kazakhstan. This show comprises work in a wide-range of media by 20 artists created from 1945 to the present.
