One of the FACSI cemeteries. Recent article which appeared in the New York Times. Along with the full skeleton remains that were found and removed, countless scattered human remains were found throughout the site. This was attributed to the grading of the cemetery in the 1950s when they created the municipal parking lot. https://www.nytimes.com//a-quarantine-hospital-so-unwelcom
