Interesting- were there seats removed (on the right side)? Do they have the names of the Olympic Champions (1964 and 2020) on the wall outside like they used to?

I do not know the reason why some seats are removed contemporarily.

As for the plate of 1964,it is installed permanently where people cannot easily find.

That is probably NOT a wise idea for any O host city now because the winners -- espeiclally Athletics are NOT finalized until 8-9 yers down the road.  Remember, the IOC and WADA are still re-awarding many medals from London 2012 to those found doping by the cheating Russians.  So, certainly, any smart stadium will NOT be engraving names of Olympic "winners" on their walls so long as those are still in flux and the jury is out.

That really was a very pretty cauldron. Hopefully Soyoshi can visit it, then hopefully it'll be relit when Tokyo gets to host a full strength Olympics. The IOC should never forget how much they owe Tokyo and Japan.
