[67] The existing UN library, a 6-story structure formerly owned by the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA), was too small. The NYCHA building could only hold 170,000 books, whereas the UN wanted to host at least 350,000 to 400,000 books in its library.

[71] By 1962, the United Nations' operations had grown so much that the headquarters could not house all of the organization's operations. Such modification would destroy Niemeyer’s plans for a large civic square. [60] A centralized phone-communications system was built to facilitate communications within the complex. [23][24] The UN also met at what is now the Queens Museum, built as the New York City Pavilion for the 1939 New York World's Fair in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park.

[130], Due to the significance of the organization, proposals to relocate its headquarters have occasionally been made. In addition, the United Nations Headquarters remains under the jurisdiction and laws of the United States, although a few members of the UN staff have diplomatic immunity and so cannot be prosecuted by local courts unless the diplomatic immunity is waived by the Secretary-General. [96], Journalists reporting from the complex often use "United Nations" rather than "New York City" as the identification of their location in recognition of the extraterritoriality status. The reason a UN based in NYC works so well is because people everywhere are attracted to NYC. [64] The Manhattan headquarters was declared complete on October 10, 1952.

[86] Once again, these plans met resistance both within the UN and from the United States and New York governments and were abandoned. Corbusier had already been lobbying hard to promote his own scheme 23, and thus, requested that Niemeyer not submit a design, lest he further confuse the contentious meetings of the Board of Design. Brooklyn was also suggested as a temporary site. It is the largest, most familiar, most internationally represented and most powerful intergovernmental organization in the world. He offers an unusual solution to the diplomatic question - Vladimir draws public attention to the vote on moving the UN headquarters from New York to one of the cities of Russia, China … The works are meant to merely be decorative with no symbolism. [11] However, the $8.5 million ($74 million in 2019) for X City never materialized, and Nelson Rockefeller purchased an option for Zeckendorf's waterfront land in Turtle Bay.
