Map of New York State
New York City is a city of the state of New
York
The distance between Moore County,
North Carolina and New York City is
480 Miles.
Ellis Island in New York Harbor was the gateway for millions
of immigrants to the United States as the site of the nation's busiest
immigration station from 1892 to 1954. Prior to that, the much
smaller original island was the site of Fort Gibson and later a naval
magazine. The island was greatly expanded with landfill between 1892
and 1934. Since 1990, restored buildings on the island host a museum
of immigration run by the National Park Service as part of Statue of
Liberty National Monument. A 1998 United States Supreme
Court decision found most of the island to be part of New Jersey.
Ellis Island is one of 40 islands around
New York.
Visitors to the Ellis Island Museum of
Immigration, opened in 1990, will not find
it difficult to visualize the scene when
immigrants, mainly from Europe, arrived on
American soil after long, crowded and often
arduous voyages. Many feared desperately
that they would be turned back for health or
other reasons. However, 17 million new
Americans were ‘processed’ – each took
about four hours – and were allowed entry
between 1892 and 1954.
