Intro to Ellis Island Edit Section - New York Monuments and Historical Sites : Ellis Island
 
 Ellis Island is the former immigration point through which 17 million immigrants passed from 1892-1954; 40% of all people living in the U.S. have ancestors who arrived at Ellis Island.  The Museum which stands on the island today has an exhaustive collection of artifacts related to immigrants and immigration, as well as a haunting audio tour and documentary film.  The Circleline ferry leaves Battery Park daily 9:30am-5pm for Ellis Island and Liberty Island, where the Statue of Liberty stands.   Ferry price includes admission to attractions on both islands.
