#cemetery #LetsTravelJuly When I would get to Washington Square Park in NYC,I would feel I was in my real New York.Lots of folks don‘t know up until 1797 it was farmland, then New York purchased it for the new potters field ,to bury the unknown , indigent ,or those who died of Yellow fever.The English elm in the NW corner is the oldest tree in Manhattan,called the Hanging tree though they can only confirm one hanging happened there in 1820.
