For the concrete base on which the statue
was to be placed, the citizens of America
raised the money. The statue, when mounted
on top of the base, towered 300 feet above
the surrounding waters!
The statue is covered with copper plates which
originally was bright and shining .But with time
the copper reacts with air and water and pollution
in the atmosphere and changes colour.Today, the
statue looks entirely green!
