Mitsui Group

My hosts in Tokyo and Anadarko's partners are Mitsui. According to Wikipedia, Mitsui started in the 17th century as a pawn shop and later as a kimono shop in Edo which is now called Tokyo. This artist depiction from wikipedia bears the following description:

Surugacho (Suruga Street) (1856), from One Hundred Famous Views of Edo, by Hiroshige, depicting the Echigoya kimono and money exchange store with Mount Fuji in background. Currently, the Mitsui Main Building (三井本館), which houses Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Mitsui Fudosan, The Chuo Mitsui Trust and Banking Co. and Mitsui Memorial Museum, is located on the right side of the street. Mitsukoshi department store is on the left side.
