Another Thomas Chambers Marine Painting-- Part 5
Another painting by Thomas Chambers was "New York Harbor with Castle Garden and ships," circa 1846.
Castle Clinton (Fort Clinton) was once known as Castle Garden, a circular sandstone fort now located at Battery Park in Manhattan, New York City.
It was the United States' first immigration station (predating Ellis Island) where more than eight million people arrived between 1855 and 1890.
