n the areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake, it was necessary to regenerate the shopping district. In the reconstruction after the earthquake, various actors took on new challenges. Since the decline of shopping streets has been progressing nationwide since before the earthquake, changes are required not only in the affected areas but also in the shopping streets of local cities. In this study, we will analyze the changes in the shopping district that occurred during the reconstruction process and analyze the places that will play a new role in Ishinomaki City and Kesennuma City, Miyagi Prefecture. The purpose is to consider the new role of the shopping district in the central area of a provincial city.
