[...] This is the same Department store (the same building as exists today) where they used to have the cable car ropeway leaving from years ago. [...]

It would be nice to find a time machine and travel back.

Yes, it would be great to see the cable car in operation. I wonder how safe it was, since they only let children in it must not have been very big.

Looking at those photos of Shibuya then and now makes me wish to go back to a simpler time. But we can't stand in the way of progress. It's facinating to see some areas haven't changed ,where sometimes you don't even reconize the area. I always enjoyed going to the museum back home in Green Bay,Wi and look at all the old photos. Every place no matter where is changing and you don't even realize it. Looking at your great photos makes me long to be there even more.__Why was that cable car for children only? Also in the last photo of Hachiko,I can't remember where i read it, but Richard Gere is going to make a film about Hachiko. Every time I read about the loyalty of that dog it brings tears to my eyes. Do they sell those goods? Wouldn't mind a stuffed Hachiko, but don't worry Rilakkuma is still #1.
