  The only cemetery south from Harlem, and truly rare cemetery at all in New York. Ever wonder why is it like that. The answer is very simple. People spend best time of their lives in this city and then they go back to their home towns and countries. Remember only 35% of newyorkers are real newyorkers.

  Open only a few times a year but worth the effort.

  I was on my way home from a day out in the city and saw a sign that said welcome visitors to a cementary. I walked in slowly not knowing what to expect because who visits a cemetery unless you're visiting the deceased. Well unbeknownst to me this cemetery was also a beautiful garden. I was shocked how well maintained it was kept and how quiet and peaceful the area was as you walked around. I was also surpised to see people just sitting with their dogs or just relaxing on benches. The headstones of some unknown people to me were scattered throughout the cemetery. They did have a pamphlet for you to check it out about the facility. Definitely a cool place to check out when its open

  It's great to see that these old cemeteries are being taken care of. Once they are gone its a part of history of our country we can never get back. I'm fighting up here in Maine to try to get these cemeteries on Google maps for others to know where they are so they can be enjoyed too by people like us that want to save our history. It's also like a style of art to me too. The new stuff is not the dame. Its all computer work and no heart in it.

  The marble cemetery, hidden among one of the east side's side streets, is the resting place of some city royalty in an unexpected place. Though the history is interesting, the cemetery is fairly small and not open to the public at most times so it's really more of a quick stop by, not necessarily worth a full visit. If passing by, stop to see the graves of some of the city's most notable families and even briefly, James Monroe. It is also the second oldest cemetery is the city, founded one year after the nearby confusingly named New York Marble Cemetery.
