Ginza Koyama daily journal 2023.02.01 Shibuya department store closed

A half-century-old department store in Shibuya closed yesterday.
It will be rebuilt, and four years later, it will become a complex facility like Roppongi Hills.
Includes luxury hotels.
This is the latest urban development trend.
The manpower must have been amazing on the last day.
Tokyu Bunkamura next door is almost closed.
Before Corona, I used to go here once a month.
The streets of Shibuya are full of young people and I am afraid to walk.
Take a taxi and go straight to the department store.
Movie theaters, museums, occasional theaters, and finally, at the bookstore on the top floor of a department store, I buy about 30 newly published books.
You can’t go home without a taxi.
If you lose such a base, you will lose the opportunity to go to Shibuya itself for a while.
When I was younger, restaurants and bars were my base.
Eventually, movie theaters and museums will become bases, and department stores and libraries will become places for the elderly to go.
Opportunities to go to Shibuya are likely to decrease.
A large department store in Ikebukuro is also closed and said to be a large electronics store.
The mayor of the ward seems to oppose it, saying that it is unsuitable for a cultural ward.
There are few old people in electronics stores.
I think there are many young couples.
You want to bring young people together.
I guess they don’t want to be all old people.
Where do young people gather?
In the Internet society, young people may not be particular about the city.
A local opportunity.
Regional revitalization is just around the corner.
