Still, just about the whole thing could be considered private property and private contracts with owners voluntarily creating libertarian conditions for others to participate in. The island corporation would have something of a state-like feel to it although it would technically be considered a private corporation. The fact that a state power is delegated to it (enforcement) gives it the feel of acting on behalf of the state in enforcement circumstances. Its board of directors could feel like a clubby oligarchy.
No problem with any of that as long as resident can leave when he wishes to leave. In fact the corporation would be well advised to provide transit to any discontent when request. A one way boat trip of Liberty Island to a destination of his choice or a destination that is feasible.
