Lady Liberty’s little sister has arrived from France to spend the long holiday weekend near her iconic sibling, on national park land between New Jersey and New York. The 9-foot, nearly 1,000-pound likeness crossed the Atlantic Ocean 135 years after The Statue of Liberty Enlightening the World and will stand on Ellis Island from Thursday through Monday. By contrast, the statue that greets those arriving in New York Harbor from Liberty Island stands 305 feet and one inch from ground to torch the copper alone weighs 62,000 pounds. (photo by Nick Sousa) Auguste Bartholdi designed the original statue in Paris, where it was fully constructed in 1884. It was assembled and dedicated on what is now Liberty Island two years later.
