Shinjuku's Hidden Symphony?
Wow, Belle Salle Shinjuku Ground for a concert? That's awesome! I don't have any juicy gossip or lost photos, sadly. But I do remember reading somewhere that the building was originally designed with some pretty innovative acoustics in mind, something about minimizing reverberation using specific materials and angles. Might be worth looking into architectural journals or even contacting the venue directly; they might have some historical info for you. It's not exactly a "secret," but it's probably not the kind of thing that gets plastered all over their website. Good luck with the concert! Hope you have a killer time.
Whitebox in Tokyo 2026: Is It Still Worth It?
yeah the old Whitebox spot got gutted around then, last I walked past it was a startup office on the upper floors. kuramae's decent but honestly Kiyosumi-Shirakawa side is quieter and the rents are still half of Shibuya. miyamasuzaka is basically all towers now.
kuramae's rents crept up too since the tawaman went in, kiyosumi side is still the better bet
whitebox actually closed back in 2018, the space is a gallery-slash-coworking thing now. shibuya's still fine to live in but the rents near miyamasuzaka have jumped hard, more office towers than studios these days. if you want that old creative vibe try kuramae or kiyosumi instead
