Pedestal Massing and Copper Drapery

Built to anchor harbor mouths, island approaches, and civic waterfront skylines, this 124,954-block monument sets a 111-block verdigris statue atop a rusticated sandstone base and tapered pedestal.

Below the statue, a stepped sandstone podium supports a battered pedestal inspired by Richard Morris Hunt's stonework, articulated with dentil cornices and recessed triple-bay dark andesite loggias on all four faces. On the north (-Z) harbor front, an exterior stair stoop leads through an open stone portal into a finished ground-level chamber.

Above the plinth, the oxidized-copper and prismarine figure stands in contrapposto: diagonal palla folds sweep from the left hip toward the raised right shoulder over vertical stola flutes, the left hand cradles an upright framed tablet, seven distinct rays fan above the recessed crown window band, and the uplifted right arm carries a railed torch cup crowned by a gold-and-sea-lantern flame.

Fit and import

  1. Clear an 80 × 80 island or pier pad with 208 blocks of vertical headroom; pasting at sea level Y=63..65 leaves more than 45 blocks of sky margin below Java's Y=319 build limit.
  2. Copy the .schem into config/worldedit/schematics/, stand at the northwest minimum corner facing the north (-Z) harbor channel, and run //schem load landmark-statue-of-liberty followed by //paste -a.
  3. Connect pier walkways or a ferry dock to the north sandstone entrance stoop at local X=40, Z=5..11 so players can walk directly into the ground-level pedestal room.

Choose an available file above and complete its protected download. Follow the import guide for your tool, start in a backup world and inspect the paste origin before placing the build.

Walkable interior access is limited to the ground-level pedestal hall entered from the north stoop; the upper pedestal shaft, copper statue, crown, and torch are solid exterior sculpture without interior stairs, the lower podium uses a stepped square footprint rather than an eleven-point star fort, and the tablet face is left blank at 8-block width.

Tested with Minecraft Java 26.3 and WorldEdit 7.4.6.

Place in harbor or island sites

Includes a stepped sandstone base, tapered granite-toned pedestal with walkable ground chamber, and 111-block patinated copper statue facing north (-Z).

  1. 1

    Check vertical clearance

    Reserve an 80 x 80 footprint and 208 blocks of vertical clearance. In standard Overworld height (Y=-64..319), pasting at sea level Y=63..65 leaves over 45 blocks of sky margin above the torch at Y+207.

  2. 2

    Load with WorldEdit

    Copy the downloaded .schem into config/worldedit/schematics/, stand at the northwest corner of your cleared 80 x 80 pad, and run //schem load landmark-statue-of-liberty.

  3. 3

    Paste without air overwrite

    Run //paste -a so surrounding harbor water or plaza paving stays intact around the stepped base, or //paste on a flat island platform.

  4. 4

    Visit the pedestal hall

    Approach from the north (-Z) harbor side to climb the sandstone entrance stoop and walk through the open stone portal into the ground-level pedestal chamber.

Verified in Minecraft Java 26.3 with WorldEdit 7.4.6. The copper statue above the pedestal is solid exterior sculpture without crown or torch interior stairs.
