Mitsubishi Jisho Residence will begin sales of apartments in The Parkhouse Hiroo Hanezawa.

Readers may remember that these apartments are being built on the site of the former Hanezawa Garden - home of Yoshikoto Nakamura (1867 - 1927). Mr. Nakamura was a former Mayor of Tokyo, Railroad Minister and second Chairman of the South Manchurian Railway Company. The original house (c1915) had been used as a wedding facility / reception hall since the 1950s.

Mitsubishi acquired the site in 2011 and demolished the house in early 2012, much to the dismay of neighbours.
