A Green-Wood Summer Respite, In Days of Yore

A guest post about William Niblo, who owned Niblo’s Garden, the entertainment hot spot of New York in the mid-19th century.

Ben Feldman is fascinated by Green-Wood’s permanent residents. He has written two books, both of which were about individuals who lie at Green-Wood. Ben’s current book project (no title yet) is about William Niblo, who owned Niblo’s Garden, the entertainment hot spot of New York in the mid-19th century. Niblo is, of course, interred at Green-Wood. Here is Ben’s guest blog post on Niblo... click here to see the rest of this post, with images, on the Green-Wood website.
