The Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation held a groundbreaking ceremony on October 6, and unveiled the renderings of the museum, which will be designed by the NYC-based architecture firm FXFOWLE. The project is a collaboration between the foundation, which manages the island and the statue, and the National Park Service.
