Description:
Built on an island to defend the harbor in the War of 1812, Castle Clinton was later joined to Battery Park by landfill. It has served as a garden, an opera house, an immigration center and an aquarium. Today, restored as a national monument, tickets for Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty may be purchased here.
