Greenwood Cemetery

Brooklyn's beautiful garden cemetery is remarkably similar to Richmond's Hollywood Cemetery. Seeing that they were laid out within 10 years of each other, the sprawling hills and dales of Greenwood was the style preferred for suburban cemeteries in the early 19th century. To put in context what things were like when the 478 acres were imagined, Greenwood was founded 8 years before Carroll Gardens was planned by Richard Butts.

Humor can be found in strange places.
