Description : Machpelah is a Jewish cemetery established circa 1855, one of four adjacent cemeteries (along with Union Field Cemetery, New Union Field Cemetery and the Hungarian Cemetery) in this "green belt" originally managed by private associations. It was abandoned by 1980 and allowed to become overgrown, with many ruined and toppled stones. It is now managed by the City of New York. Its imposing entrance building was demolished in 2013. Machpelah is renowned as the resting place of Harry Houdini (Erich Weiss).
