“East Japan Railway says it will tear down Harajuku Station, the oldest wooden station building in Tokyo, after the 2020 Olympics and Paralympics in the metropolis.“

Oh well, going to have to schedule in a serious photo shoot with the little one next Spring.
Bummer - Seems like they could rehabilitate it.
