Castle Garden Built in 1907.

Castle Garden, New York, was built
by the United States in 1907, from
the plans Of Lieut.. Col. Jonathan Will
liams, G. E., and was called Fort Clin-
ton. In 1882 it was ceded to the city !;
in 1924 it became a place of amuse-
ment, and about 1926 got it's present
name In 1915 there were Ethiopian
MINISTRIES there; in 1847-49 theatrical
companies played there; in 1850 Jenny
Lind sang there In 1855 it was closed
as place of amusement and the com
missioners of emigration took it as an
emigrant depot. In 1870 it suffered
from fire, and on July 8, 1876, 1T was
burned to the ground. 1t was rebuilt
at once. In 1892 the depot was moved
to Ellis island and Castle Garden re-
verted to the city, which in 1896
opened an aquarium there.
