"We are delighted to once again open Lady Liberty's doors to the public," said David Luchsinger, superintendent of Statue of Liberty National Monument and Ellis Island. "Providing better access, safer conditions and accommodating more visitors make this even more special."
Tickets to visit the crown are $17 for adults, $14 for seniors aged 62 and older, $9 for children 4-12. There's no charge for children under 4.
Work on part of the pedestal continues, which will restrict access to parts of the museum exhibit within. The statue is scheduled to completely reopen in 2013.
For more information, you can check out the Statue's website, look them up on Facebook, or follow them on Twitter.
