<div id="ygrps-yiv-2142173653">yes i can see all this but i was thinking just the prestige value of <br/>
partly owning the great liberty island might be worth the candle in <br/>
this case<br/>
& i imagine it would be an easy case to make at this point<br/>

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