Ellis Island is a symbol of migration

Explanation:

Ellis Island is located in state of New York, city of New York. It was built at the end of 19th century and represents a unique symbol of migration at that time, and later remained a symbol and one of the main tourist attractions in the city.  It was open in 1892 to serve as a immigration center and served as such 60 years long, until it closed. There is also a National Museum of Migration on Ellis Island opened for public in 1976.
