The first time I visited Green-Wood Cemetery, I fell in love. It’s a Brooklyn historical marvel of glorious beauty. Not only a place to honor death, there’s a lot to do and even more to learn. I’d never have thought visiting a cemetery would get my juices flowing. But history and learning get me going. That’s the stuff I love most. So, this place caught my fancy right away.
Many fascinating people lie at rest in these impeccable historic lawns. The names are often familiar. Boss Tweed’s here along with politicians people actually liked. Monuments proclaim familiar family names like Colgate, Pfizer, Tiffany, and Steinway. Notorious gangsters and other dark characters from history lie within graves here too. But the coolest stories are the iconoclasts buried here.
