See Liberty before she closes interior in October.
The Statue of Liberty will undergo a yearlong safety make-over, temporarily closing its interior to visitors at the end of October on the 125th anniversary of its dedication. Tourists will still be able to visit Lady Liberty's home on Liberty Island and views of the statue in New York Harbor will be "largely unobstructed" during the $27.25 million renovation project, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said on Wednesday.
"
Two years ago, when we reopened Lady Liberty's crown to visitors for the first time since the September 11 attacks, I promised that we would continue to upgrade the interior to make it safer and more accessible for all," Salazar said in a statement.
