A branch of the Japanese Patriotic Women’s Association (愛國婦人會) completed in 1940, built in a hybrid Japanese-Western residential style with face brick on the ground floor and horizontal weatherboard above. After the war the front building served as the US Information Service library and cultural center until the severing of ROC-US diplomatic relations in 1979, then as a municipal library branch. Designated a municipal monument in 1998, it now operates as a creative industries center.

Alexander Synaptic
Curator, Spectral Codex

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.
