Mode Gakuen Cocoon Tower
Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan
04-08-24

On my first full day in Tokyo I took a subway to the Shinjuku district to catch our tour bus but deliberately got there about 90 minutes early. After finding the spot where I'd need to be when the bus arrived, I walked around taking photos. It was 6:30am and hardly anybody was around so I had the city streets to myself.

In any other city, a skyscraper like this would be a standout, but in Tokyo, a city of many skyscrapers, it almost blended in with everything else except for certain views, such as this one.

From Wikipedia:
Mode Gakuen Cocoon Tower (モード学園コクーンタワー) is a 669 ft tall, 50-story educational facility located in the Nishi-Shinjuku district in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan. Completed in October 2008, the tower is the second-tallest educational building in the world and was the 17th-tallest building in Tokyo.
