Who Owns the Statue of Liberty????

I stumbled upon this fun historical video that lets you know which state--NY or NJ--owns the Statue of Liberty.



I'm so glad that selling real estate doesn't get as complicated as dealing with ownership of a National Icon.

Although, every 1-2 transactions out of 100 end up with survey (boundary) issues, just so you know.
