The building in the background is one that I sketched and painted long before the other buildings were constructed. I do not know what building it is or its name, but the scene projects how time changes waterfront scenes. Thanks to Takahiro Yamamoto for permission to include his photo in my blog.

The contrast between the giant skyscrapers of Tokyo and the narrow alleys of Shinjuku is part of the magic and charm I find so fascinating about Japan. I would much rather traverse these alleys with their inviting signs than ride the high-speed elevators to the sky-high elevators of the corporate world.
