Understanding Lady Liberty's Stature
The iconic Statue of Liberty, a beacon of freedom and democracy, stands majestically in New York Harbor. From the ground to the tip of her torch, Lady Liberty measures an impressive 305 feet 1 inch (approximately 93 meters). Her copper statue alone, from heel to the top of her torch, is 151 feet 1 inch (46 meters) tall. This makes her the equivalent height of a 22-story building, a truly colossal sculpture!
