The United Nations Headquarters in New York City, completed in 1952, was designed by an international committee of ten architects and planners known as the Board of Design Consultants, directed by American architect Wallace K. Harrison. The iconic complex, featuring the 39-story Secretariat, was a collaborative effort heavily influenced by key designs from Le Corbusier and Oscar Niemeyer.
