Crown Reservations
The Statue of Liberty’s crown was closed to the public after the 9/11 attacks for safety and security reasons. This spring, Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar announced that beginning on July 4, the American public would again be able to visit the crown. Crown reservations are sold out for the 4th, however reservations for available dates can be made through the park’s ferry concessioner, Statue Cruises
