[edit] Governors Island

The Times said today Governors Island closes Sunday. There is no mention of the open house. [1] The Park Service is closing it Sunday. --K72ndst 02:09, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

I will update with a citation. Station1 18:56, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Statue of Liberty location

The Statue of Liberty is much closer to Jersey City than to New York City. That's not even possibly in dispute, it's a simple fact: just look at a map.

The Statute of Liberty is "in" New York State. That's not seriously in dispute, either, although Jersey boosters often try. The issue is discussed at length in the article on Liberty Island.

If you have anything important to add regarding the location of the Statue of Liberty, please discuss it in Talk:Statue of Liberty or Talk:Liberty Island before changing the article. Dpbsmith (talk) 12:05, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Liberty Island is _part_ of New York City. You can't possibly get any closer than that. Station1 (talk) 03:35, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
!!!! OK, you have a point, assuming you're correct about Liberty Island being part of New York City. I don't think we have any material or references bearing on that point in either Liberty Island or Statue of Liberty, if I've overlooked something my apologies.
Please discuss this at Talk:Statue_of_Liberty#Is Liberty Island part of New York city? before changing anything, and let's see what other editors have to say on the matter.
If you have a nice, clear, unambiguous reference from a reliable source that says it's part of New York City, this is the time to mention it. If there's already one and I missed it, then by all means rub my face in it. Dpbsmith (talk) 21:20, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
Please see second of the two references at Liberty Island. Station1 (talk) 05:25, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
