Ruined (2010), by Hew Locke, is a series of "cast iron grave markers which have been fabricated using the artist’s original designs and relate to the share certificates and historical documents of commercial companies, which no longer exist or have undergone transformation" http://www.aprb.co.uk/projects/all-projects/2010/ruined-hew-locke-brunswick-cemetery . "Brunswick Cemetery was established around 1770 and later, it became a Unitarian burial ground until 1963 when it became a public park." In the background is housing and a garage on Wilder Street. I shall try to return on a sunny day for another look.
