So how far am I?

 

[neggy]

and it isn't only Lady Liberty, it is a few other places too, including the USS Constitution in Boston, which is feet away from Logan Airport and in Class B airspace from the surface to 7000, so it is a no fly to start with, then they added a no fly for security on top on the Class B NoFLy

I can't tell, but it is up to you to stay clear of the controlled airspace that is all around it, the air corridor where you can fly up the Hudson is measured in inches... look at a sectional.

Plus you have all sorts of Helicopter traffic headed there, stuff flying out of Teterboro in close proximity, general aviation using that low level airway.

Add to that the lighting ( after dark) and the next question would be was it VLOS and did you have strobes mounted, because none of the DJI strobes are legal for night flight.

Someone at the National Parks Service could determine by knowing the length of the pier

Yeah, I'll let you know when the FAA calls

If you don’t want the call, maybe don’t post the evidence on YouTube?
