An older enamel “Community Road” sign in Shinjuku, Tokyo, photographed in March 2023. These signs—marked with コミュニティ道路 (“community road”) and a stylized map of the ward—were installed beginning in the late 1970s and 1980s as part of a municipal effort to identify quieter local streets prioritized for pedestrians, schools, and neighborhood traffic rather than through-traffic.
Although many have faded or disappeared as Shinjuku redeveloped, surviving signs like this one remain a small reminder of earlier phases of the ward’s streetscape planning. The hand-drawn lettering, green stripes, and simplified ward outline reflect the graphic design style common in Tokyo’s municipal signage of that era.
