Overlooking the Hudson River from the Mornside Heights section of Manhattan, General Grant National Memorial is the largest tomb in North America. Grant's Tomb (as it is commonly called) is not only the final resting place of the General, but a memorial to his life and acomplishments.
Technically, no one is "buried" in Grant's Tomb. The 159 foot neo-classical structure is a tomb, therefore both General Grant and his wife are "entombed", above ground, inside the Memorial.
Hope that help, for more information on "Grant's Tomb" visit www.nps.gov
