Standing at the edge of New York Harbor, Ellis Island greets you with the same hushed gravity it offered millions of arrivals over a century ago. The red-brick and limestone facade rises above the water, a monument to one of the most consequential chapters in American history. Walking through the restored Registry Room at Ellis Island, you feel the weight of those journeys in the vaulted tile ceilings and worn wooden benches. It is a place where the abstract story of immigration becomes deeply personal.
