Restoration Projects in 2009

Green-Wood’s Manager of Preservation and Restoration Frank Morelli, and his team members Bogdan Kubiszewski and Felix Hernandez, chose to restore selected stone and bronze pieces over the course of 2009 as a challenge to Green-Wood’s   restoration department.

Green-Wood President Richard J. Moylan picked out a few bronze mausoleum doors and plaques throughout the Cemetery for the department to work on. After a little homework and research, Morelli and the department found basic patinas for the weathered metal, then tackled the new type of project. Here are photos of some of the stunning results.
