Don't panic, The Torch has been closed since the "Black Tom" explosion of July 30, 1916 so I think Clark knew what he was doing.

Really!!? I had no idea! But I've only been to NY twice and never went to the SoL

WHen I was a child I wanted to go up in the torch.

Also of note to this topic, the whole statue was closed between 1984 and 1986 for renovations.

Actually, you're both wrong wrong, they closed the S.O.L. after the September 11th attacks, but since reopened

He was referring to the torch specifically, not the whole statue.
