Nearly a hundred years ago, the hordes of tired and poor immigrating to America passed not through the Arizona desert, but through the gates of Hudson Bay. Once landed and processed, they would come here -- the Central Railroad of New Jersey Terminal. From here, they could go anywhere in America; anywhere they dreamt.

Today, the terminal stands in ruins, the tracks ripped out to be recycled into skyscrapers, the benches reclaimed by native grass.

    Nice photo, but I am pretty sure that Hudson Bay is in Canada. I think you mean New York Harbor (or similarly, the banks of the Hudson River).
