  Tokyo/Toshima - Wikitravel
Toshima (豊島, [1]) is a ward in northwest Tokyo, Japan.
The Toden Arakawa line, the last streetcar line in Tokyo, putters through Toshima starting from Waseda University (just across the district line in Shinjuku), through Zoshigaya, Ikebukuro, and all the way to Minowa at the northern edge of Taito.
There is, quite frankly, very little in the way of attractions for tourists in Toshima.

Toshima said that the events of Sept. 11 have overturned the conventional philosophies used by the Japanese in managing pension funds.
Toshima feels that corporate bankruptcies, the falling stock market and rapidly depreciating yen will keep the Japanese very anxious about their nation's economic health well into next year - which would likely keep gold in the investment spotlight.
