Tokyo 1990 (20年前の東京) Video Exhibition by Lyle (宏) Saxon

This video exhibit/installation by Lyle (宏) Saxon is entitled "Tokyo 2010 (20年前の東京)", and it runs from June 9th, 2010 through to June 19th.  The material includes many scenes of a Tokyo already vanished in the relentless flow of history - such as views inside the old Marunouchi Building, views of an empty-lot Shiodome, the fountain in Shinbashi's SL-Plaza, etc.  For those with the time to watch the entire video, it runs for an hour, but if you only have time for ten minutes, or five, or three, that's fine too!
