Join me as I embark on rare guided tour of Hart Island, NYC's potter's field, and a historically fascinating and poignant place. We'll explore the island's past, learn about its role as a public burial ground, and reflect on the stories of those laid to rest there. We also learned about the many other ways Hart Island has served the greater New York City area. It's a moving and unforgettable tour that many people don't get to experience. A huge thank you to the Urban Park Rangers who led us on this incredible journey throughout the island and the captain and crew of the Michael Cosgrove Ferry!
