Title: Ellis Island
Description: In 1990 a completely restored Ellis Island was rededicated by the National Park Service as a national monument and reopened for public use. For more than sixty years, from 1892-1954, the buildings on this small island in New York Harbor hosted the greatest migration in modern history. Indeed the story of Ellis Island is the story of American immigration. - Prologue.
