The estate of the famed naturalist and painter lay just across 155th Street from Trinity Church Cemetery, where this monument stands.

I'm walking every street in New York City.
This is the counterpoint to my walk across the US. Instead of seeing a million places for just a minute each, I'm going to spend a million minutes exploring just one place. By the time I finish walking every block of every street in all five boroughs, I'll have traveled more than 8,000 miles on foot — all within a single city. Details!

Your donations allow me to keep walking full-time. If you think what I'm doing is valuable and you'd like to offer some support, I would be very grateful. On the other hand, if you think I'm a worthless bum, feel free to email me and tell me to get a job, bozo. Both are excellent options!
Thank you JJ for your bird work. A joy to behold.
I love this memorial. The part facing the entrance of the cemetery has designs of different birds and fowl on the cross and Audubon’s face on the marker, here’s a pic I took ..
