Ellis Island Reopens To Visitors

Visitors walk around the registry room on Ellis Island in New York in Monday. The island that ushered millions of immigrants into the United States received visitors Monday for the first time since Superstorm Sandy. Sandy swamped boilers and electrical systems and left the 27.5-acre island without power for months. (AP Photo/Seth Wenig)
