| - The Statue of Liberty was initially planned to be constructed in New York City, however, funding issues had led to other cities, such as San Francisco, Boston, Philadelphia, and Chicago to bid for the statue.

San Francisco had their bid accepted, due to the availability of funds to have the pieces of the statue shipped across the continent and assembled on Treasure Island, which is located directly in the middle of San Francisco Bay. The Statue of Liberty is an icon of both French and American ingenuity, the city of San Francisco, the state of California, and the United States as a whole. The statue can be spotted or imagined in many films, video games, and books.
