You are referring to Ellis Island. Until 1954, all new immigrants to the United States had to pass through Ellis Island before beginning their new lives in the United States. They had to answer questions and pass a health inspection before they were granted citizenship. See the Related Links below for more information.
The very first person to walk through the doors of Ellis Island was Annie Moore, a 15-year-old girl from Ireland. She walked through with her 2 brothers.

There were three passengers classes on most ships: first and second, which were cabin classes, meaning the passenger or family recieved a cabin or its own on board ship, and steerage class, where passengers slept in the hold (belowdecks) of the ship on bunks about 1/2 feet by 6 feet, with no privacy and no personal floor space or storage space. All steerage class passengers had to go to Ellis Island and pass medical tests and answer questions such as whether they were an anarchist.
