Pastoral paradise part 2: Greenwood Cemetery in color
Details
Let's tour the parts of Greenwood that we didn't have time to see in August, including the most beautiful statue and the most powerful monument. The Cemetery is one of the world's loveliest cemeteries, with lush landscaping, rolling hills, tranquil ponds, and amazing monuments--a veritable outdoor sculpture museum, and final home to numerous famous people. We'll eat lunch (bring your own) at around 2 PM at the edge of a big picturesque pond, then meander through the bucolic winding paths of this supremely peaceful place.
DISTANCE: 3 miles.
ENDING TIME: Around 4 PM. But you can leave earlier, of course.
LUNCH: Bring your own. We'll start eating at around 2 PM.
COST: $1, to help cover meetup's annual $360 organizer fee.
TRANSPORTATION: R train to 25th St (and 4th Ave). Check weekend subway changes by googling MTA planned services changes.
