The Statue of Liberty was closed for a year-long project that was the second phase of planned work to make the interior safer and more fun for visitors. The monument opened shortly before Superstorm Sandy. It's closed again, temporarily, while the storm's damage to Liberty Island and Ellis Island is assessed.
