Nice post Scott. I wonder what part Robert Moses played in trying to turn Ellis Island into a park... I'm currently really enjoying the 99 percent invisible read through of The Power Broker, all about Robert Moses. https://99percentinvisible.org/club/
Have you ever been to the Eastern State Penitentiary Historic Site in Philly? I went there w/ my friend Chris recently and thought they did an ok job of connecting 18th & 19th century prison history w/ the present. Heavy stuff.
