History and Architecture of the United Nations

April 23, 2021

The United Nations Headquarters (1947–1952) buildings are an iconic part of the Manhattan skyline and their architecture embodies the spirit of cooperation, equality and transparency which is central to the United Nations’ mission. This Municipal Art Society virtual tour, led by UN tour guide Jonathan Mishal, takes an insider’s look at the history and architecture and examines how the UN functions within, using current and historical photographs, and original architectural drawings.
