Day six. A cemetary

Since we’re staying in Brooklyn - we go for a Sunday walk through the Brooklyn Park (Prospect Park - modelled on the Central Park) and visit the grave of Leonard Bernstein at a beautiful cemetery:

Green-Wood Cemetery was founded in 1838 as a rural cemetery, in a time of rapid urbanization when churchyards in New York City were becoming overcrowded. Green-Wood Cemetery was so popular that it inspired a competition to design Central Park in Manhattan, as well as Prospect Park nearby.
