  1. If this is the ‘amazing’ view, I don’t think I’ll bother. There are better vantage points than this.

  2. Bit of a tangent… the construction on top of shibuya station has been on going for a while… are they making the station bigger? Anyone know what they’re constructing?

  3. Shibuya “development” is work in progress. Expect to see this for at least a couple more decades. The plans are there, but implementations are, of necessity, taking time. The sequence of construction is dictated by priorities considering the district is very crowded and awake 24/7.

  4. Ah, the eternally under-construction Shibuya Station!

    (But seriously, what a logistical nightmare it must be for the construction companies.)

  5. Just remembered Anya’s line that she learned from anime after looking at this picture.

  6. How old is this photo? I just read a news article saying that Tsutaya and Starbucks have closed in the building just below the tip of the crane. I know media consumption is changing to downloadable content, and most of the store was har copies of video games and dvds, but I loved the top floor of Tsutaya, great quirky book selection and the little bar/cafe.

  7. I hate to say it but Shibuya is easily my least favourite part of Tokyo. Been here a week now and had some great times but Shibuya just had me on the verge of a panic attack the entire time. Total sensory overload and god the SMELL.

    Really wanted to like it but I’m not sure why, it’s just Times Square on the opposite side of the world.

  8. Just got back from Japan this week, and my first time in Shibuya I got interviewed by Tokyo TV. Then I went left to the Scramble. Such a good day.
