Green-Wood

1 p.m. Scandals, Scalawags & Murder Most Foul Trolley Tour
2013-06-08 13:00 - 15:00 (America/New_York) | Green-Wood Cemetery, 500 25th Street, Brooklyn, NY, 11232, United States
Visit some of Green-Wood’s most nefarious residents with veteran tour guide Ruth Edebohls.
Green-Wood is the final resting place of many famous and heroic people, but the reputations of some of its denizens are a bit more blemished. Murderers and the murdered, a sullied adulteress, a famous courtesan, gangsters, con men and schemers all lie next to those of a more virtuous disposition.
$10 for members of Green-Wood/$15 for nonmembers

Good architecture exalts the spirit, so it’s no surprise that many architects, builders and designers have sought to make Green-Wood, whose purpose is exaltation of the spirit, their final resting place.
James Renwick (St. Patrick’s Cathedral), James Bogardus and Daniel Badger (cast-iron pioneers), Montrose Morris and George Chappell (best of “Brownstone” Brooklyn architecture), John McComb, Jr. (New York City Hall), Jacob Wrey Mould (Central Park features), Grosvenor Atterbury (Forest Hills Gardens), John Kellum (Tweed Courthouse), Gamaliel King (Brooklyn Borough Hall) and more – they all call Green-Wood home.
Expert guide Ruth Edebohls will lead you through landscape architect David Bates Douglass’ incomparable work of art (and also visit him), stopping by samples of great architecture by luminaries like Richard Upjohn & Son, Warren & Wetmore and Stanford White.

Imagine an outdoor pleasure dome, strung with lights, adorned with fountains and featuring the top musicians, dancers and entertainers of the time. That was the scene at Niblo’s Garden – the premier entertainment house of 19th-century New York.
Niblo himself was a flamboyant character and he had a habit of turning his Green-Wood plot (purchased well ahead of time) into a pleasure garden of its own – inviting friends, hosting picnics, and even stocking the nearby pond with goldfish.
To celebrate the man and his spirit, join us on this unique night to bring the glory of Niblo’s Garden to Green-Wood! In front of his grand mausoleum, see a fabulous one-of-a-kind outdoor show. Bring a blanket, some wine and take in fire jugglers, trapeze artists, opera singers and even Niblo himself – all under paper lanterns and a starry sky.
$30 for members of The Green-Wood Historic Fund/$35 for non-members
In case of severe weather, this event will be rescheduled for Saturday, August 17th.

1 p.m. Capturing Green-Wood: Inspiration and Tips From a Pro
2013-09-07 13:00 - 15:00 | Green-Wood Cemetery, 500 25th Street, Brooklyn, NY, 11232, United States
In the pursuit of the perfect shot, photographer Colin Winterbottom has climbed to the top of national landmarks, crawled into dark and dusty spaces, and sought out the most dramatic urban landscapes he could find.
This year Winterbottom found a worthy subject in Green-Wood when he was commissioned to bring his award-winning eye to Green-Wood’s forthcoming book Green-Wood at 175: Looking Back/Looking Forward. Currently, many of his photos of monuments and mausoleums grace the walls in the Museum of the City of New York’s current exhibition on Green-Wood’s 175th anniversary.
On this trolley tour with Winterbottom and Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman, you’ll return to the scene of the photographer’s Green-Wood shots (including several mausoleum interiors) as he talks inspiration and technique. Bring your camera and tripod so you can practice as you learn a few tips from a master – or just come along for the ride and the history.
$20 for members of Green-Wood, $25 for non-members.

1 p.m. The Fearless Mrs. Goodwin – The First Female Detective in America Talk and Tour
2013-10-20 13:00 - 15:00 | Green-Wood Cemetery, 500 25th Street, Brooklyn, NY, 11232, United States
It was the crime of the young century: a brutal bank heist committed in broad daylight on the streets of Manhattan. The police couldn’t solve the case—until they turned, reluctantly, to a woman. And so begins the amazing story of Isabella Goodwin – the NYPD’s (and the country’s!) first female detective.
Join author Elizabeth Mitchell as she tells the fascinating tale of Green-Wood resident Isabella Goodwin, a remarkable woman who broke gender barriers in one of the toughest arenas in the city. After hearing all about Ms. Goodwin and her feats, we’ll head out to Green-Wood on the trolley to visit her resting place, plus those of other women worthy of celebration.

This event has two parts with limited seating, the free talk in the Green-Wood Chapel and the (now sold out) guided trolley tour. Talk tickets are still available below.

Green-Wood’s 478 acres boast a dazzling array of vistas, flora and fauna. But the grounds are also a premier collection of monumental sculpture and design. Tour guides Karen Lemmey, curator of sculpture at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and Jeff Richman, Green-Wood’s resident historian, know a good sculpture when they see one.
They will lead you on a tour of new sculpture like “The Greeter,” “The Angel of Music,” and “Civic Virtue;” portrait busts like Horace Greeley and Elias Howe; plus some of the more magnificent classic sculpture in Green-Wood.
$15 for members of Green-Wood, $20 for non-members.
