It wasn't built in New York. It was actually shipped there in pieces from Paris. That's why it's green: it's made of copper, but the salt from the ocean while it was being shipped turned it from brown to green. It was put in New York because that is where most of the immigrants landed when they came over from Europe and the Statue of Liberty became symbolic of America and its acceptance of immigrants.
