@truetalesnyc: Did you know that the Statue of Liberty was originally defined as a lighthouse? From 1886 to 1902, it was run by the US Lighthouse Board and even had a staff of keepers on site. But why? And was it an effective lighthouse? If you want to know the whole story of how the Statue of Liberty came to be, watch “Secrets of the Dead: Raising Lady Liberty” on @Thirteen_WNET - streaming on the PBS app and PBS.org. #nychistory #statueofliberty #truetalesnyc
