Answer:

The French ship Isere carried the statue across the Atlantic and landed in the United States on June 17, 1885. ... 28, 1886, the statue was triumphantly dedicated in Upper New York Bay in a celebration overseen by President Grover Cleveland

Designed by French sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi and paid for by the government of France, the statue was a diplomatic gift to the US. However, the US had been unable to raise $250,000 for a granite plinth for the statue - around $6.3m (£4.1m) at today's prices.
