Probably not, but commercial property rents have been falling, and Ginza is rapidly becoming the place people go to shop for cheap bargains.

Yes, one of their biggest stores ever.
So far I've been unsuccessful tracking down the Ginza address of this new store. Anyone know?

Or, cool-looking, good quality clothes at a reasonable price, and Meisa Kuroki sure looks good in her Uniqlo stuff, tho I admit she would look good in ANYTHING.

Sad story. I used to know a good old days of Ginza carrying high end products 40 years ago. Ginza had a class and a status. This wll change a branding image of Ginza forever.

I've got news for you, Uniqlo produces decent affordable clothes. I'm much warmer this winter in mine. And it looks nice, too. Now, if it was only made in Japan...
