Cemetery for Civil War Veterans (& spouses) in Grand Rapids, Michigan

Graves continue up to the present day. The original design has expanded, according to the historical plaque at the east gate, adjacent to the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans, just south of River Park (on the Grand River) and west of I-196 and the Plainfield exit [photos as of May 15, 2013; playback time 1:56].
