This paper is a report on the author's thoughts and findings during the eight year trial of the street corner Laboratory "Honmachi Lab.". This trial began in 1997 and continued until 2004. The Laboratory (Lab.) is situated on the Honmachi Central Street of Sanda City. The street is a typical street in a declining shopping district in Japan. The author made observations during the process of decline of the shopping street and also studied the possibilities regarding the renovation of the central part of the city. However, the author knows it is very difficult to solve the problem of decline, and he does not say that the Laboratory is the solution to problem but he found that the Honmachi Central Street has some advantages as follows. If the members of the shopping street such as Honmachi Central Street establish what is causing the decline and find how to use this information they could then find ways to resolve their problems. Some of the advantages are: (1)Everybody knows each other → Excellent crime prevention, (2)Generational communication → Full of promise, (S)Kindness toward old people and kids → Sincerity and Barrier-free, (4)Some festival events. Enjoyable to live → Pleasure, (5)The residents makes efforts to maintain a historically beautiful town and environment → Sustainability, (6)The cooperation among the business, agriculture and university → Cooperation.
