     I can possibly explain why New Jersey hasn&#39;t<br/>
asked for any part of Liberty Island.  Simply, it<br/>
isn&#39;t worth it.  For Ellis Island, they got something<br/>
like 80 to 90% of the island because It was increased<br/>
hugely.  Not only does its territory has almost all<br/>
subsidiary buildings, also the main building is partly<br/>
on it.  The economic implications are big.  Ten feet<br/>
of land here and there which would end up parts of New<br/>
Jesey in Ellis Island just isn&#39;t worth it.<br/>
     By the way, I believe the pier is old enough that<br/>
it is possibly exempted though I do not have the exact<br/>
history of the island nor the case on the boundary<br/>
with me.<br/>
