Above-Ground Burial

Above-ground burial, a choice once reserved for the wealthy, is now available to our families at prices comparable to that for in-ground burial.

Families who prefer above-ground burial may select a crypt from one of Green-Wood’s elegant community mausoleums, including our new Hillside Mausoleum IV. A complete selection of crypts including single, double, companion, couch or family style crypts are available. Beautifully appointed meditation areas are available throughout all of our buildings.

From Green-Wood's latest Hillside Mausoleum, a dramatic glass structure built into the side of a hill, to our smaller Garden and Crestview Mausoleums, Green-Wood offers a variety of above-ground interment options.

Our experienced counselors can help with questions, concerns and decisions. For more information regarding Green-Wood's community mausoleums, please call the Green-Wood Cemetery sales office at 718.768.7300, e-mail us at sales@green-wood.com or fill out our Request Info form.
