Used to be able to see it from my corridor at work. In the last few 
months, though, they've built something nearby that's just big enough to 
block it.

Still see it sometimes coming in on the Seibu Ikebukuro line (the train 
even passes through a station called Fujimi Dai). It can be seen even 
better from the Chuo line, but I don't use that these days.
