The island you are referring to is Liberty Island. It is located in New York Bay and is primarily known for housing the Statue of Liberty. While the island itself is part of New York City, it has historical ties to Jersey City, New Jersey, particularly regarding its administration and access. However, Liberty Island is officially a part of the state of New York.

See the Related Link below for more information about the controversy between New York and New Jersey over Liberty Island. People consider the Statue of Liberty to be part of New York City because 1) the statue itself is (for obvious reasons) located on the part of Liberty Island that is above sea level, ergo, the statue is in New York City, or 2) they are simply unaware that New Jersey owns the submerged portion.
