Trinity Church Cemetery & Mausoleum (Uptown)
Few people know Manhattan still has a working cemetery. On Riverside at 155th, on what was John James Audubon's estate, lie Audubon himself, John Jacob Astor, Clement Clarke Moore (who wrote 'A Visit from St. Nicholas'), and Ed Koch. It's the uptown counterweight to the downtown founders' graves.
The only active cemetery in Manhattan — Audubon, Astor, and Clement Clarke Moore rest here.
