As promised, here is a sneak peak at the facade of Ellis Island;

That's the China Warehouse in the distance, to give you a sense of size. And here's a quick shot of the interior;

Opened on January 1, 1892, Ellis Island became the nation's premier federal immigration station. Located in New York harbor, and in operation until 1954, the station processed over 12 million immigrant steamship passengers. Row upon row of benches lined the cavernous hall, where immigrants waited for their turn to be processed and be allowed admittance to the United States. Today, over 40 percent of America's population can trace their ancestry through Ellis Island.
Disney's Imagineers have built a faithful reproduction of Ellis Island under the skillful (and modest, and possibly hungry), design and building skills of Mr. W.A. Bigbear. His contributions have proved invaluable, and the Citytrader Design Corporation has taken on the task of fitting the interior.
The attraction will house "The Immigrant Experience", a 3D adventure following one families emigration from the "Old Country" to the "Land of Opportunity", America.
This magnificent structure is one of the cornerstones of Disney's America.
More to come...
