Lafcadio Hearn was one of the most important chroniclers of Japan after the country was reopened to the outside world. This is the site where he lived at the end of his life and where he died. However there's really no trace left of that time, and the few random artefacts placed in the park tell you very little about this remarkable historical figure. The buildings were probably destroyed during WW2 bombing or the Great Kanto Earthquake, so the destruction is not the fault of those who maintain it now, but the choices of what to do with the space after that are, and they didn't make good choices. It celebrates Hearn's Greek origins, which seems particularly odd given that once he left Greece in his youth, he never went back. He changed his name and became a Japanese citizen, yet the site forces a Greek identity on him which he worked hard to escape.
