福州街11號日式宿舍

A two-storey wooden house designed by Taiwan Government-General engineer Otsuji Kunikichi (尾辻國吉) as his own residence and built sometime in the 1920s or 1930s, in a neighbourhood of dormitories for senior officials of the Japanese colonial era. Otsuji departed from the standard official dormitory plans to suit the climate of Taipei, with numerous windows, broad verandas, and layered roofs for shade and ventilation. It later housed National Taiwan Normal University president Liu Zhen (劉真), and was designated a municipal monument in 2011.

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.
