Which statue in New York Harbor is a World Heritage Site?

The statue in New York Harbor that is a World Heritage Site is the Statue of Liberty.

Officially titled Liberty Enlightening the World, the monument stands on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. France gave it to the United States, and French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi designed the figure. Engineer Gustave Eiffel helped create the iron framework supporting its copper skin. The statue was dedicated on October 28, 1886.

The robed figure represents Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom. She holds a torch in her raised right hand and a tablet in her left inscribed with the date July 4, 1776, the adoption of the United States Declaration of Independence. A broken chain lies at her feet, a detail often missed in photographs.

UNESCO designated the Statue of Liberty a World Heritage Site in 1984, recognizing its symbolic importance as a powerful representation of freedom, democracy, and human rights. The Eiffel Tower is also French but stands in Paris; the Lincoln Memorial and Washington Monument are in Washington, D.C., not New York Harbor.
