Old and New Architecture in Tokyo - Photo 3

By Muza-chan on Oct 11, 2009 | In Japan travel | 12 feedbacks »

Again about Tokyo’s mixed architecture, this time a small and old building from Ueno, on Asakusa Dori, “squeezed” between two newer and larger buildings.

In the same neighbourhood, behind the newer buildings, there is an old buildings area, with much charm… But about this, on a future post. :)

Hah! That is amusing. I wonder how much money they were offered all those years ago to give up their land??

Just like the homesteader who doesn't want to give up his hard earned land, they just build around him. He doesn't give in. His land he paid for it. Only the strong survive,good for him for not giving in.:thumb::thumb:

I like that old building. With a little bit of maintenance it will look really nice.

It was the same way in China. Old versus new in the neighborhoods. It does however give it some charm.

Hah, that's a really fun shot. As other commenters mentioned, you can almost see the story of what happened here over the course of time.
