America, A New World - Ellis Island/Immigrant RP - Accepting

[Guest]

Welcome To Ellis Island



You've been on a boat the past week of your life; the seasickness is just about to get to you when you see a large building looming in the distance over a sea of doubt: Ellis Island. You and your family survived steerage, sickness, horrible food, and a hot, cramped, sweaty boat for the past seven days and now it's finally over! You've arrived.
The question is, what happens next?

Hello. Ellis Island is a crucial part of American history and where most of us get our heritage from. If you're interested, please take an application and post it here.

Places

More will be added on as the RP progresses, but you do have to choose from the following streets as to where to live.

Victorian Avenue
A quiet street in New York, near Ellis Island. Most French, Hungarian, and German people live here than anywhere else. There are about 100 floors in each of the six buildings and communities of these immigrants are closely knit.

Sepia Drive
A much louder, better smelling place; most Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese immigrants come here to stay. It is close to Victorian Avenue. There are three restaurants on this street: Bella Notte (Italian), Mama's Cooking (Spanish), and Alimento Feliz (Portugese).

Ash Street
Ash Street is a very high-in-the-ranks street with mostly rich or comfortable folk. The majority of the people who live on this street are Irish, English, or Scottish.

Beetle Boulevard
Beetle Boulevard is a crowded, tightly knit community. They mostly make their livings working for other people or being the most divine craftsmen and women; mostly Welsh, Danish, and Swedish.
