We have something like that here in New York. It has to do with this old movie where Cary Grant kisses someone under the 59th street bridge. Well someone set up a board with the same view so tourist can kiss and have their picture taken. I want to scream sometimes! "THE REAL BRIDGE IS 3 BLOCKS AWAY, AND IT FREE!!!" but of course I don't, I mean we all have a hustle, right?

Landmark Tower is the tallest building, 295.8 meters (970 feet) high. Tokyo Tower is the tallest man-made structure at 332.6 m (1,091 ft). It seems it's much easier to make tall towers than tall buildings. Less infrastructure. But I'm no engineer!

It was when it first opened, but I'm pretty sure the Yokohama Landmark Tower is the tallest now. “..and the tallest man-made structure in Japan.”
