city: 2k540 AKI-OKA ARTIZAN

この間、補給食を買いに御徒町まで行った時、改札でふと、このサインに気がつきました。

I noticed this sign at JR Okachimachi station exit when I went to buy supplements the other day.

駅員さんに尋ねても、「いや〜、知らないねぇ。いつからあったかなぁ…？」と。あらら…

I asked what it is a station staff, but he has no idea whatsoever. "I don't know about it at all. When this is set up there? "

でも見るからに線路沿い・高架下な感じなので探しに行くと…

But it seemed that there must be something near there, so I started look for in its neighborhood, then...

ありました！　高架下が綺麗にお化粧されて、小さな街ができています。

found it! An under the JR track was cleaned up and get painted with white to become a small town.

2k540 AKI-OKA ARTIZANという名前だそうです。

最初の5ケタの読みは「ニーケーゴーヨンマル」、意味は「鉄道用語では東京駅を起点とした距離『キロ程』で場所を示します。当該施設は2k540m付近にあるため『2k540』とし」ているそうです（公式HPより）。
