In the 19th century, island institutions housed juvenile delinquents, sick and poor immigrants, alcoholics and the mentally ill.
Most institutions were forced to close in the early 1900s, to make way for construction of the Triborough Bridge. The bridge, supported by Randalls and Wards islands, opened in 1936.
With the filling in of water to the south, Randalls Island was joined with Wards Island.
