Built in Federal style by David Hoadley in 1814.
The Green was used as the main burial ground for the residents of New Haven during its first 150 years, but by 1821, the practice was abolished and many of the headstones were moved to the Grove Street Cemetery. However, the bodies were not moved and still remain below the soil of the Green. It is conservatively estimated that between 4,000 and 5,000 bodies remain buried there.
