Shibuya Station-front Intersection

Awhile back, I posted a picture of this location in my golden week entry. At that same time I also took a video of it. Unfortunately, I ran out of space on the camera before I could capture an entire pedestrian crossing cycle, but I think it still conveys the point.

You just gave me the idea for my next "Japan and America compare/contrast" post. As I was writing a response about this issue of walking, I realized it would be better as it's own post
