The Nagakin Capsule Building in Tokyo looks set to be demolished. Apparently Kurokawa submitted a proposal which was dismissed whereby the existing capsules would be removed and updated capsules - presumably sans reel-to-reel tape decks - reattached to the core. The proposal was dismissed in favour of knocking the whole thing down and starting again in order to add 60% more floor space. Previous Capsule madness on g-mor.
