    2. He was only 33 years old? Damn, New York years really aged a dude fast in the 1800s.

    3. Greenwood Cemetery is gorgeous. The last time I was working in NY I stayed in that neighborhood and spent a morning walking around that cemetery. A few more famous people buried there include: Leonard Bernstein & Basquiat. I love the statue that points at the Statue of Liberty.
