Seven to Save Spotlight: Elmhurst African American Burial Ground

October 29, 2020

This month we'll be highlighting the Elmhurst African American Burial Ground. What at first appears to be an empty lot off Corona Avenue in Queens, is in fact a sacred site that local advocates have been rallying to protect since the "the lady in the iron coffin" was discovered back in 2011. We hope you'll join us on Thursday, October 29, at 4:00 p.m. for a conversation with the Elmhurst History and Cemeteries Preservation Society, moderated by Simeon Bankoff from Historic Districts Council.
