Directions
East Gallery: Restoring a Landmark
Turn around and turn left out of the Dormitory Room. Head all the way to the far end of the balcony (toward the "3 East" sign). Turn left to the sign that says “Stairs”, and make your way through the double-doors – then take the stairs or ramp immediately on your right. At the foot of the stairs, head into the “Restoring a Landmark” exhibit. This room features photos of the restoration process at Ellis Island. Pause for a moment and take a look at the first wall of photos – they are the ones slightly to your right when you enter the exhibit.
