Lights come on at NYC's Statue of Liberty after Sandy damage

THE Statue of Liberty was illuminated on Friday evening for the first time since it was closed due to damage on New York City's Liberty Island caused by Superstorm Sandy.

The statue, one of the city's top tourist attractions, has been closed because of damage to the island resulting from the storm that hit New York on October 29, with no estimate on when it will reopen to visitors.

The statue sits on a small island in New York Harbor, and can be seen from many vantage points around New York City. The monument was re-lit through temporary measures made possible by a donation of equipment and services from Musco Lighting to the National Park Foundation.
