Tokyo/Olympics 1964/ Construction of the Metropolitan Expressway
This photo records the construction of this major infrastructure that soon became the backbone of Tokyo’s transport network, it sheds light on the system’s monstrous scale that is never before seen in post-war Tokyo, pushing the capital towards becoming the strong metropolis it is today.
I found this photo breath-taking, truly captivating. It is a very interesting juxtaposition of scales in the scene where one can find small-sized automobile, low-rises and the monstrous-scaled infrastructure.
