HISTORIC BUILDINGS OF JAPAN:JAPANESE ARMY HEADQUARTERS Ichigaya
NOT MY PHOTO. While browsing Wikipedia, this building popped up. It survived all of the destruction of war and is, I presume, still standing. What fascinated me was its style. It is a kind of Art Deco from what I can tell. Anyone know if it still stands. It is a beautiful style of architecture.
