The notice says they start demolishing of this building on 28th September 2009. Hurry up if you want to take pictures.
This is an entrance to the underground (subway) station. Obviously the architect/designer's inspiration was the art-nouveau Paris Metro entrance.

歩道橋にて。
At a footbridge.
向こうの光は信号とテールランプと、もしかしたら夕日。
The light was of a traffic signal, several rear lights, and possibly the evening sun, blended into one.

Our good-old plastic flowers. I think this is for ひな祭り, with the pink round one (which is お団子) on the tips, though they always have plastic flowers on this street.
