> Searching for urban examples of commemorative treatment of former locations of a removed cemetery.  Current research project has documented a 1690s - 1850s Christian burial ground in urban context.  The church, which sold the burial ground in mid-19th century and has records of vault removals, is still an active congregation in the same community.  The former cemetery was developed as residences with some retail, and subsequently incorporated into a public park and public transportation complex.  [Current construction plans include archaeological monitoring.]  Post-construction plans include an acknowledgement of the full history of the area, including a former burial ground.
