New Orleans, Italy
Lafayette Cemetery No. 2 is a roughly 2.5-acre municipal, above-ground garden-style cemetery located at 2100 Washington Avenue in New Orleans, Louisiana. Established in 1858, it contains family tombs, coping burials, and large vaults built by benevolent societies, particularly African American labor
and mutual-aid groups. It is owned and operated by the City of New Orleans Division of Cemeteries and has largely fallen into disrepair, although restoration projects are ongoing.
