Don't follow the map on this page.
The map on the main page is deceiving. It took us to 2011 31st St, where the marker is, but actually the cemetery is on E 31st St. So a little detour, but we made it under the wire by entering the cemetery at 7:55. It closes at 8pm so we were a little nervous when the gates closed and we thought we were locked in, but they were automatic for opening to let us out. Anyways, it was an honor to see his gravesite and just remember him for his music and the impact he had on the music of that era even though he died so young. Some people mentioned the signage being tacky, but I was glad it was there so we could find it easily.
