The Statue of Liberty National Monument is a United States National Monument comprising Liberty Island and Ellis Island in the U.S. states of New Jersey and New York. It includes the Statue of Liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World) by sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and the Statue of Liberty Museum, both situated on Liberty Island, as well as the former immigration station at Ellis Island which includes the Ellis Island Immigrant Hospital. This preliminary historic structure report is written as addendum material for the actual historic structure report covering the entire Main Building which is presently being researched and written by professionals in the A/E firm. Following an outline history, the DSC research is described in "Summary of Field Investigations" and proposals for new work in "Restoration Replacement and Reconstruction." The section entitled "Recommendations" outlines further work to be done concerning copper on the Main Building and proposals for contracting and construction time. A cost analysis: Class "B" contains estimated quantities, unit prices, and total prices for specific areas of copper work. At the time of the writing of this preliminary historic structure report, the Denver Service Center and the A/E firm are still in the process of negotiating their scope of work and professional relationship. However, it is understood by the parties involved that the DSC project architects shall continue to work on the Main Building and other structures on island No. 1 in cooperation with the A/E firm and will monitor their research, reports, drawings, and specifications.
