==History==
Kinokuniya was originally a lumber and charcoal dealer in Yotsuya; and after the 1923 Great Kanto earthquake, the business was moved westward to a new location in Shinjuku, where it was refashioned into a book store by former president Moichi Tanabe, opening with a staff of five in January 1927.〔Sidensticker, Edward. (1990). ''Tokyo Rising: The City Since the Great Earthquake,'' p. 50.〕 On the second floor was an art gallery.
The building burnt down in May 1945 during an air raid, but reopened in December 1945. Over the next few years, more Kinokuniya shops opened around Japan. In 1964, headquarters was established in Shinjuku (the current Shinjuku Main Store Building). The bookstore was nine stories and had two underground floors.
