Life under the girder - Shinjuku Oo-gaado (alternative shot)

            Alternative shot of Shinjuku Big Girder or Oo-gaado (新宿大ガード). It is part of the serial uploads of Summer in Tokyo.

Please note the difference of Japanese trans-literation between the signage in the upper-left and the title of the photo. I believe the latter represents better the actual pronunciation.

Small green signage in the right is the entrance to Omoide Yokochou (思い出横丁) where small restaurants and drinking places are squeezed into a narrow alley.

Shinjuku Oo-gaado is where the Oume-kaidou (青梅街道) road goes under the girder of Yamanote (山手), Chuou (中央) and Saikyou (埼京) railway lines. Beyond the girder is famous or notorious Kabuki-chou (歌舞伎町).
Trains come every few minutes. I should have waited for one to come on the girder to shoot a better photo.
