Tokyo—Tsukiji

“A large foreign colony is resident in Tokyo, the diplomatic corps, the great numbers of missionaries, and those employed by the Government in the university, school, and departments constituting a large community. The missionary settlement now holds the Tsukiji district near the railway station; that piece of man-made ground along the shore first ceded to for the exclusive occupation of foreigners.”
