Houghton Mausoleum

Location: Section 12

Hope Cemetery is noted for its impressive mausoleums dating from the nineteenth century to the 1960s. The eleven examples offer visitors a sampling of Classical, Egyptian and Renaissance Revival building styles as well as this picturesque miniature Gothic chapel erected in 1901 or 1902 by the Troy White Granite Company which had offices on East Worcester Street from about 1900 to 1910. C. C. Houghton began the manufacture of boots at Lincoln Square in 1853.
