  21. The K. Hattori building, known as the Ginza Wako department store, was founded in 1881 by Kintaro Hattori (服部金太郎) as a watch and jewelry shop called K. Hattori (now Seiko Group Corporation) in Ginza. In 1947, the retail division split off as Wako Co., Ltd. (株式会社和光, Kabushiki-gaisha Wakō). This K.Hattori building is NOT connected with the swordsmith 服部正廣 (Hattori Masahiro).
