A little more perspective
The National Park Service describes the stone pedestal as 89 feet tall. Its separate fact sheet combines pedestal and foundation into 154 feet; those two boundaries are not interchangeable. The metric value here converts the pedestal-only 89-foot dimension.
This educational component view isolates the granite-faced support designed for the statue. It begins where the pedestal meets its foundation and ends at the platform beneath the statue’s feet. It does not recreate the complete ground-to-torch monument.
