About this event
A free 90-minute introductory walking tour of Green-Wood, taking in the Gothic arch, the hilltop views over the harbour and the monuments of the New Yorkers buried here. The best starting point if you have never been, led by a Green-Wood guide who fills in the cemetery's nineteenth-century origins as the city's first public park in all but name.
Why we picked it
The cemetery's flagship free tour, and the clearest introduction to a landmark most visitors never reach.
