Statue of Liberty Will Be Closed for a Year during Its Renovation Work from October.
To renovate the 19th-century icon to suit the 21st century's needs, the city of New York will close the statue for a year, spending $27,250,000. The renovation will better power lines and elevator systems within the statue. Since the statue symbolizes the nation and its history, her closure will damage the city's tourist trade for sure.
