The first private, nonprofit cemetery in the world, it was one of the earliest burial grounds to have a planned layout, with plots permanently owned by individual families, a structured arrangement of ornamental plantings, and paved and named streets and avenues. By introducing ideas like permanent memorials and the sanctity of the deceased body, the cemetery became "a real turning point... a whole redefinition of how people viewed death and dying", according to historian Peter Dobkin Hall. Many notable Yale and New Haven luminaries are buried in the Grove Street Cemetery, including 14 Yale presidents; nevertheless, it was not restricted to members of the upper class, and was open to all. In 2000, Grove Street Cemetery was designated a National Historic Landmark. Today, it is managed by Camco Cemetery Management. (en)

  • Grove Street Cemetery ou Grove Street Burial Ground é um cemitério em New Haven, Connecticut, que é cercado pelo campus da Universidade Yale. Foi organizado em 1796 como cemitério de New Haven e incorporado em outubro de 1797 para substituir o cemitério de New Haven Green, que estava lotado. O primeiro cemitério privado sem fins lucrativos do mundo, foi um dos primeiros a ter um layout planejado, com lotes de propriedade permanente de famílias individuais, um arranjo estruturado de plantações ornamentais e ruas e avenidas pavimentadas e nomeadas. Ao introduzir ideias como memoriais permanentes e a santidade do corpo morto, o cemitério tornou-se "um verdadeiro ponto de virada ... toda uma redefinição de como as pessoas viam a morte e o morrer", segundo o historiador . Muitos notáveis luminares de Yale e New Haven estão enterrados no cemitério de Grove Street, incluindo 14 presidentes (reitores) de Yale. No entanto, o cemitério não se restringia a membros da classe alta e estava aberto a todos. Em 2000, o cemitério de Grove Street foi designado um Marco Histórico Nacional. (pt)
