If your command of Japanese isn't up to date, remove the 'jp from the URL to get the news in English :)

From Reddit (9 days ago) via Nikon Rumors site.  It looks like real photo. If real, it seems that Nikon Corporation has a sense of humor.https://www.reddit.com/r/DesignPorn/comments/1ezfd9t/manhole_cover_at_nikons_new_headquarters_that/?utm_source=embedv2&utm_medium=post_embed&utm_content=whitespace&embed_host_url=https://nikonrumors.com/

The new museum opens today. I was going to go - until I realized today is actually opening day … A note on the official web site asks people not to line up during the night or in the early morning, so as not to annoy the neighbors.

Reckon I’ll avoid the Uber-nerd crowd and delay my visit for a few weeks.

Thank you for the note.  I'll do the same (as mentioned in the second paragraph, of course!).
