Today is the birthday of The Stature of Liberty. One hundred and twenty-five years ago, the proud Lady was gifted to the United States from the people of France.
(Three men and the Lady! NY with nephews George and Michael – April 2000)
Starting tomorrow October 29, 2011, all interior spaces of the Statue of Liberty will close while upgrades are made to the pedestal and the 200 year old fort base which the stature sits upon. Liberty island however will remain open.
Starting today … you can view parts of the Statue of Liberty and look out over New York City harbor from newly mounted webcam . It is so cool!! Boats moving about in the harbor, helicopters flying above the city and … you can actually read what is written upon the tablet that she’s been holding for 125 years!!
