Answer 1

Answer:

Photos hung on the East and West sides of the Great Hall balcony in the Ellis Island immigration facility.

Explanation:

The Great Hall in Ellis Island was an immigration facility in the United States used by immigrants between 1900- 1924. Here, photos from the early 1920s hung at the balcony on the East and West sides of the registry room located on the second floor of the building.

Notably, at the entry point of the peak immigration, large portraits were hunged on the walls.

For over two decades (1900-1924) immigration service officers inspected legal and medical examinations for the new arrivals of new immigrants.
