Calvary Cemetery chapel

May 29th, 2014

The September 1909 issue of Popular Mechanics called this the "most remarkable mortuary chapel in America". (Flip back one page in the magazine and you'll see two photos captioned "Largest Horse Ever Cast in Bronze—Its Interior Used as a Banquet Hall".)

Great stuff Matt. Your posts always make my morning coffee taste better. Must be the water.

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!
