Architect by Jim Cheney
Located in the Bronx, Woodlawn Cemetery is one of the most interesting cemeteries in all of New York.
Woodlawn Cemetery was opened in 1863 and was, at the time, located in a rural area north of New York City. Over time, the city grew to encompass the area around the cemetery, transforming it from a peaceful, rural setting to the middle of a bustling metropolis.
Below, I have information about the graves of 10 of the most prominent people buried in Woodlawn Cemetery. They are listed in a logical order for a visit that starts at the gate on Jerome Avenue and ends at the gate on East 223rd Street. https://uncoveringnewyork.com/woodlawn-cem...
