Completed before the rest of the statue, the arm - it was hoped - would encourage contributions to raise the funds to finish the figure and its pedestal, a task that would prove difficult. Those who paid 50 cents could climb to the torch balcony. #NewYork #weird #architecture #urban #history #psychogeography
