Fwd: All Gates now open 7 days a week!

From GWC
Consider making a donation ad a grateful gesture for an open sanctuary.

Hope is important because it can make the present moment less difficult to bear. If we believe that tomorrow will be better, we can bear a hardship today.

Enjoy spring at Green-Wood while social distancing

Dear Mr. Dorosh,  You asked and we heard you! We have adjusted the open hours for our Gates to accommodate those of you seeking a place to enjoy art, history, and nature while practicing precautions to reduce the spread of coronavirus. To enable easier access for our neighbors, we have decided to open our Fort Hamilton Parkway and Prospect Park West Entrances—usually open to the public only on weekends—seven days a week. Our new hours are as follows: Our Main Entrance (Fifth Avenue and 25th Street) will be open from 7am to 7pm.  Our Sunset Park Entrance (Fourth Avenue and 35th Street) will be open from 8am to 7pm.  Our Fort Hamilton Parkway Entrance (Fort Hamilton Parkway and Micieli Place) and Prospect Park West Entrance (Prospect Park West and 20th Street) will each be open from 11am to 7pm. For nearly two centuries, Green-Wood has been a peaceful oasis—a calm in the urban storm. During this challenging time, we welcome you to find peace and solace in our historic landscape. We remind you that Green-Wood is an active cemetery, and encourage you to be mindful of those around you during your visit. Please practice social distancing at all times. We also ask that you observe the following rules: No riding of bicycles, rollerblades, or scooters and no dog walking, jogging, or game playing. Please consider making a donation to Green-Wood so that we may continue to keep the Gates open throughout this time. You can grab a map at our Main Entrance to help you explore, or download our free mobile app using Google Play or the App Store.  Enjoy your visit and please be safe!
