Long considered part of New York, a 1998 United States Supreme Court decision found that most of the island is in New Jersey.
Half of Ellis Island hospital is abandoned. The hospital complex on the south side of Ellis Island was once one of the most advanced in the world. So advanced that some of the city’s wealthiest families wanted to be treated there but were rejected since the hospital was a public health initiative, not for private clients.
This postcard I received from a nice girl Madelyn from interpals.net, thank you girl ! :D
On this postcard you can see USS Lexington nicknamed "The Blue Ghost", is an Essex-class aircraft carrier built during World War II for the United States Navy. Originally intended to be named Cabot, word arrived during construction that the USS Lexington (CV-2) had been lost in the Battle of the Coral Sea. She was renamed while under construction to commemorate the earlier ship. She was the fifth US Navy ship to bear the name in honor of the Revolutionary War Battle of Lexington.
