August 2005 update.
Mark A. Thomas of New York City has posted a terrific page showing fifteen of his own photos of the cemetery, many taken inside the grounds. www.sorabji.com
MT. CARMEL CEMETERY, Van Alst St. Astoria, Queens, NY
The photos in this section were taken in April 1998 by Queens researcher and cemetery photographer Jim Garrity . www.jimgarrity.com/

The grounds were not accessible. To gain access, one must make arrangements with the Brooklyn Diocese to enter the grounds when the maintenance crew is on site. Mt Carmel Church no longer has a connection with the site.
