Join the Archivists Round Table Metropolitan of New York for a private walking tour of Green-Wood, which will highlight the Cemetery’s history, New York history, monuments and buildings of significance, and the stories of their permanent residents.

Green-Wood is 478 spectacular acres of hills, valleys, glacial ponds, and paths, throughout which exists one of the largest outdoor collections of nineteenth- and twentieth-century statuary and mausoleums. Four seasons of beauty from century-and-a-half-old trees offer a peaceful oasis to visitors, as well as its 570,000 permanent residents, including Leonard Bernstein, Boss Tweed, Charles Ebbets, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Louis Comfort Tiffany, Horace Greeley, Civil War generals, baseball legends, politicians, artists, entertainers, and inventors.

A private walking tour lasts approximately 90 minutes. Please note that there are some areas where the terrain is uneven, so please wear comfortable walking shoes.
