Hope this helps!!!!
Because it was to big to ship to New York as a whole statue.
WEll, there is the Empire State Building (but that's not really a STATUE) so a big statue in New York would definitely have to be the famous Statue Of Liberty!! lildancer99<33
350 individual pieces
Because it was way too big. There was no big boat to transport the whole thing in one crate.
The French shipped the Statue of Liberty in 250 separate pieces, making the transportation of the Statue possible.
How was The Statue of Liberty built?The Statue of Liberty was a gift imported to the U.S. by the French. First the pieces were built and assembled then diassembled into 350 pieces and stored in 214 crates then the parts were shipped to bedloe's island New York and then assembled.
