The Statue of Liberty National Monument faces southeast in perfect symmetry with the placement of Fort Wood and how people would see the Statue while entering the harbor aboard ships. #FunFactFriday
In the mid-eighties, the Foundation raised the funds to restore Ellis Island, which reopened as a museum in 1990. The Great Hall or Registry Room, where immigrants were processed, was restored to its 1918-1924 appearance. The black & white photo is from 1984; the color image was taken this week. #ThrowbackThursday
Beautiful thank you for sharing
I was there in 1984-I remember the shell of a building-and being talked to by a Ranger-then I returned again in 2014- and the transformation was amazing!!! I'am a former American Studies Major from the UK-my interest and later extended essay for my degree, was about immigration in the 1890's , and living conditions in the Lower East Side of NYC from then on!
So glad we did this

It’s National Hot Dog Day! Nathan Handwerker, born in Galicia, came through Ellis Island in 1912, and within a few years would found Nathan's Famous. In 1916, Handwerker borrowed $300 from two friends and started a nickel hot dog stand on Coney Island using his wife’s secret spice recipe. #NationalHotDogDay

First there was the hotdog, then came the hamburger and now, for the third year in a row, comes the immigration and history of the pizza! Another successful and delicious summit completed! Thank you National Park Service for your support! 🗽
What an amazing day celebrating the history and immigration of pizza!! 🍕🗽🇺🇸
