If you have ever seen Lydia on PBS, this is her NYC restaurant. Been there a few times, and her place in Pittsburgh several times, (which is now closed...). https://www.becco-nyc.com/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a lot of small cramped stairs But what a view once you’re up there. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted June 14, 2023 Author #3367 Share Posted June 14, 2023 There are stair and elevator options to the pedestal. The signs for stairs say 175 + 26 but a guy working there told me 215. Then another 180 to the crown. If you do the elevator you have to wait in line. They only take 4 at a time in one elevator. Then you have to take the last 26 steps because it doesn’t go all the way to the pedestal. museum. I just snapped a couple pics 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanmarcosman Posted June 14, 2023 #3369 Share Posted June 14, 2023 In 1935 my mom went to nursing school at St. Vincent's Hospital in NYC. She and some classmates toured the statue when visitors were allowed to take the stairs up the right arm and walk outside around the base of the torch. Mom said only about 6-8 people could fit out there and it was scary. 15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Haljo1935 Posted June 14, 2023 #3370 Share Posted June 14, 2023 @Saint Greg thanks for sharing these amazing photos. Visitors were not allowed (due to construction) to go near Lady Liberty when we went several years ago, so your pictures kinda help complete that trip. 🥳 With your blessing, will be using these to help plan our upcoming Sept trip - you'll be our tour guide in abstentia! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sid_9169 Posted June 14, 2023 #3371 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Greg, you know we like to break each other's balls, but I'm being totally serious right now... You've really gone above and beyond this time. All the careful planning it must've took... Learning to speak Spanish to some critical acclaim... Traversing Continents and time itself... My hat is off to you, dude. But... Jerry Seinfeld throwing out the first pitch? How in the heck did you work that into the plan?... You may really be Batman... 22 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
