The Island That Changed America Forever – November 12, 1954
On November 12, 1954, Ellis Island closed its doors, ending over 60 years as the nation’s primary immigration gateway. Between 1892 and 1924, millions of immigrants arrived here, starting new lives in America. For many, Ellis Island was their first experience of the United States, filled with hope and uncertainty. Today, the site stands as a museum, preserving the stories of those who journeyed through its halls. Nearly 40% of Americans can trace their ancestry to this historic island in New York Harbor.”
