Show Do you mean that he adapted to the American Society more quickly? Is that what you mean? 10 YI: Yes. Along with he had the vision of what he could do by establishing a store and being a focal point of the Japanese community. There wasn't a community, a Japanese people at that time. Then shortly after that on First South, you have all of the Japanese Tokyo type, the situation of First South. LK: Do you remember what was there, roughly, on that street? YI: Yes, right where the Marriott Hotel is on First South, just about where that is standing was a fish market, and west from there was the Sunrise Fish Market and the Noodle Houses, Colonial Hotel, and all the Japanese Community there. Then, I think the first industry that got started was Eagle Laundry. Part of stock company and the organizational functions of the business district in Salt Lake. We had several meetings, then, .the second generation got scattered a little farther away from the Japanese community. The Blue Boy, Joe Grant ~1assoka's Blue Boy store. That was on Second South between the interstate and First East on the south side of the road is where a lot of the original Salt Lake JACH started, was in the little Blue Boy market.
