Adding refs edit
Adding website history as ref, as well as location. Adding architect's site as a ref. Adding info about 1992 renovation. Removing statement that the original mural is still present. The facade was replaced in 1992, so unless this refers to something else, it is not true.
This was one of my favorite buildings in the Ginza when it was first opened. The lobby had a bamboo pipe organ (bamboo pipes instead of the big wood pipes). When I went downtown, I would try to get to the Ginza at times when they did their organ "recitals". Then I could head upstairs to the isolated listening room -- a quiet island in the midst of a noisy city. If anyone can find any information on this organ, it would make a great addition to the article. It was gone by the time I went back to Japan in 1976. Don Lammers (talk) 23:23, 26 December 2013 (UTC)

I don't have time to do any editing at this point, but do not want to lose these. Don Lammers (talk) 23:00, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
