As a major landmark of Kunitachi City, Daigaku Street stretches south for two kilometers from Kunitachi Station to Yaho Station. Its impressive 44-meter width dates back to the early Showa era, when it was actually used as an airfield runway for planes flying to Karuizawa in Nagano Prefecture. The name ‘Daigaku’ means ‘University,’ directly inspired by the presence of Hitotsubashi University.
