This is my image of Seiji. A leafy suburb with trees overhanging the clean narrow roads. This area of town is peaceful and laid back but very well organized

Is normal to have a building with different kind of shops and listed outside like that?
Azriel
My eyes!!! So much color >o<!
shibuya246
yes, this is quote a normal thing. There are often big signboards showing the different tenants in the building like this. :) I'll try and grab some more photos of these type of boards next time.

So glad to see that you're back in action after a while! Damn those hackers! But boy, you sure are going all over the place lately; I have some catching up to do!! hahaha :-) Will be heading back to Tokyo this November for a two week stay, but I think I`ll dedicate a few days to seeing these kind of spots that you're showing us that are "off the radar" so to speak; Shibuya246.com proving to bet every damn Gaijin info center there is! This looks like a very peaceful neighborhood, a lovely stroll in the afternoon.

Hope you have a great trip. I'll try and get all my latest photos up soon.

I was living in Tokyo, Sejogakuen Mae from 1983 to 1989. It hace changed a lot. But I liked the pictures with the Sengawa River. This pictures show the way to my home.
But on google earth I could see the building do not exist any more. [email protected]
