Open, uh, house on Sunday at the New York City Marble Cemetery

The New York City Marble Cemetery will be open on Sunday from 11 a.m.-5 p.m. The cemetery, on Second Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue, opened in 1831. This Times piece has more on the history. Or go to the Marble Web site.

It's only usually open to the masses twice a year...so... Here are some photos from previous years...







By the way, do not confuse the New York City Marble Cemetery with the New York Marble Cemetery on Second Avenue. That one now has the lovely view of Avalon Bowery Place:
