The title points to a flag that has flown for a full century, a long run of continuity over a site known for arrivals and new beginnings. Ellis Island opened as a federal immigration station in New York Harbor in 1892, and it processed roughly 12 million people before closing in 1954. Its later years as a national monument gave the island's flag a new role, as a marker of the history of those who passed through its gates.
