CLEAN : New York's island of the dead to welcome more of the living

Hart Island, established in 1868 as a Potters field for New York City, serves as a burial site for many New Yorkers. Unlike the well-known Ellis Island, Hart Island is less discussed due to its association with death.

This diversity makes Hart Island a significant and sacred part of New York City's history.
