Binney Monument Conservation and the Value of Preservation

Amos Binney is buried in Lot #1391 on Heath Path at Mount Auburn Cemetery. His marble memorial, carved by Thomas Crawford in 1847, is the only monument at Mount Auburn that has been designated an “American Treasure” by the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the White House Millennium Committee and has recently been conserved.
