Back in my last trip to Tokyo in 2014, I stayed one night at the condo owned by my good friend Rob. Even then, it was evident that the Musashi-Kosugi neighbourhood along the JR Yokosuka Line and the Tokyu Toyoko Line was showing some major growth as not just a bedroom town but a full-fledged small city in its own right.
Coming back to my friend's place again...this time, for 3 nights...some more residential towers have popped up like bamboo stalks along with a a huge shopping mall to go along with the other huge shopping mall. And I did see a new hotel in the area, too. Musashi-Kosugi is a happening place.
Plus when the sky is clean and clear, like it was on the 12th, I can even see Mt. Fuji from his living room.
Rob and I also went to a nice Indian restaurant on my first night there. Butter chicken curry...come to papa!
Had to think of an appropriate video for the article so I went with "Matenro Blues"（摩天楼ブルース）by TokyoJAP.
Sure hope that the elevators stay reliable.
