Happiness Island

Happiness Island is an island in the water surrounding Liberty City, officially part of the borough of Algonquin. It is based on the real-life Liberty Island, complete with its own version of the Statue of Liberty, called the Statue of Happiness. The end mission partially occurs on Happiness Island.

Unlike the real-life Liberty Island, Happiness Island has only a light police presence; no reinforcements should arrive (apart from Police Mavericks and Annihilators) as the island is isolated from the mainland, and Predator patrol-boats cannot dock to transport foot police. The island is large enough for the player to escape from a one-star Wanted search radius on foot if they stay out of sight of police, which is useful for players hunting the six pigeons on the island.

Trivia

 * There are six pigeons located on the Statue of Happiness.
