Statue of Liberty to close
I knew that would get your attention!!! :)
Okay….the Statue of Liberty, which celebrates its 125th birthday this October, will close shortly after the celebrations for a year of renovations.
The renovations will improve both the safety and the accessibility of the interior of the statute.
Liberty Island will be open during the closure and the statue itself should be unencumbered from view. You just won’t be able to go inside.
According to the National Park Service, only 30% of the island’s visitors actually go inside the statue. Access to the crown is limited to 240 people a day and all reservations between now and the statue’s closing in late October have been taken.
