Shimizusawa Elementary School Size:XS A grease gun lies whereShimizusawa Elementary School sits vacant in Yubari, its rendered facade weathered and windows dark. The building is one of many public institutions emptied as Yubari's population fell from a peak of 107,972 in 1960 to fewer than 6,000 today. From 22 elementary schools at the city's height, Yubari had consolidated to a single primary school by the end of 2010. Part of the Streetscapes of Yubari series.
