UNDERGROUND ACCESS SHAFTS
Relatives and business partners often
purchased a vault jointly. Other closelyrelated persons bought adjacent vaults that
share entrances or have common walls. In a
few cases, some who were rivals in their
professional lives chose to be neighbors in
death. As research into this important group
of New Yorkers continues, more connections
come to light.

The Cemetery is a grid of underground
marble rooms, 6 columns by 26 rows. The
two columns closest to the south wall are
separated by a series of discrete access
shafts, as are the two columns closest to the
north wall. The two columns in the center,
with their marble tablets on opposing walls,
also have access shafts between them. This
means that for the 156 vaults, there are 78
unconnected, buried entrances.
