Poor Omotesando Hills. It’s only 5 months old and already people have lost interest. There were more people in the Gap down the street that in all of OH. Tokyoites need stimulation all the time and O-Hills, as I shall call it, just doesn’t deliver the goods at a reasonable price. Stuff ain’t cheap here. Brad and I dropped by after work because we were in the area and thought “it was about time”. Anyway, the building is very nice and not as bad as I had expected. Unfortunately, it was not a place I’d need or want to come back to again (1) No photo around here. What a drag (2) You could not sit on the steps either. Which meant there was nowhere to take a rest and I don’t remember seeing any benches around. That means those steps are for climbing to get to the other levels. But since no one would actually do that, these steps are only for decoration and to take up space.
Too bad the Shinseibank/Coffeeshop/Internet Cafe was hidden way down in the corner of the basement floor. This would be a cool place to hang. Have a cappuccino, check your account balance etc.
The benches are near the toilets. :)
Oh, and so far that’s the only reason why I ever went to OH, to go to the toilet. Convenient!
I didn’t visit the toilets. Is there anything special about the “design”?
