A multi-use government office building completed around 1939 in Huwei, Yunlin. It was shared by the police and fire departments and the second floor hosted a public meeting space. It continued to serve a variety of purposes in the post-war period and more recently underwent a light renovation to become a branch of Starbucks. It is well-preserved and worth a visit.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
