About this audio guide
This guide to New York-New York in Las Vegas starts with a postal blunder: the Postal Service printed nearly three billion stamps using the face of the fifty-foot Statue of Liberty replica bolted to this casino's corner, not the original in New York Harbor. You'll hear about sculptor Robert Davidson, who gave his Liberty a deliberately softer, more modern face, and the lawsuit that followed once the mismatch came to light. Along the way it tours the four-hundred-sixty-million-dollar fake Manhattan behind her, from a scaled-down Empire State Building to a Chrysler Building beside a subway entrance leading nowhere.
