This paper will examine the history of Hart Island, what led up to it being
established, how it functioned as an institutional landscape in addition to a burial
site, and what options are available for its preservation. Using Hart Island as a case
study of the intersecting topics of politics, poverty, and preservation I hope to
uncover what factors lead to the successful preservation of marginalized
landscapes. Exploring how they come to be and how we as a society choose to
remember them. / 0 / SPK / specialcollections@tulane.edu
