Good to know

The creators didn’t realize she would turn green with age. In the 1920s, 40 years following its opening, the copper façade began to green. America's suffragists didn’t take too kindly to Lady Liberty. They felt that the sculpture symbolizing a free and strong woman didn’t represent the reality of women struggling for voting rights. The statue's full title is Liberty Enlightening the World. Lady Liberty wears a shoe size 879 and her waistline is just over 35 feet.
According to the 2009 issue of TIME, the Statue of Liberty can be summed up as “a fixture of New York City and a symbol for the nation.”
