The great majority of immigrants landed in New York City, at America's busiest port. They never forgot their first glimpse of the Statue of Liberty. Edward Corsi, who later became United States Commissioner of Immigration, was a ten-year-old Italian immigrant when he sailed into New York harbor in 1907:
"My first impressions of the New World will always remain etched in my memory, particularly that hazy October morning when I first saw Ellis Island."
—Immigrant Kids,
Russell Freedman
