Local blacksmiths forge Statue of Liberty gates by hand
Hurwitz and Markey bid for the statue gates chosen by the renovation committee. They will hand forge bronze bars into hinged verticals, shaping, cooling, and peening joints, with over $5,000 in bronze and two 1,000 pound halves. Production begins in New Jersey then delivery to New York. Both artisans count restoration quality as essential and anticipate further work on Rockefeller gates in Washington.
