I don't know what it was originally, but for many years it housed a children's clothing store called the "Little Pinto Shop" that was still in operation when the tower next door was built. It is cute - too narrow to have an entrance on the front, the door is on the east side. There used to be a little addition on that size that contained the entrance and another small display window.
In Tokyo that building would be narrower (maybe only 3m wide), have a front entrance -- and maybe six stories.
