Three United Nations Plaza
Three United Nations Plaza is a mixed-use building in Turtle Bay, Manhattan that was designed for the United Nations by Kevin Roche. It is located across First Avenue from the UN headquarters in Midtown Manhattan of New York City. Three UN Plaza, or UNICEF Headquarters is on the south side of 44th Street. The United Nations Development Corporation or UNDC is a quasi-public institution that developed and presently operates One, Two, and Three UN Plaza. UNDC operates all of Three UN Plaza. As the name suggests, UNDC's principal tenants are the United Nations, the UN Development Programme, UNICEF, and other missions to the UN. Three UN Plaza was built in 1986. UNICEF is its only tenant. Three UN Plaza (also referred to as "Three"), which opened in 1987, is a 15-story office building located on the south side of 44th Street between First and Second Avenues, across from One and Two UN Plaza. It is next door to another landmark building, the Beaux-Arts Apartments. Three's property includes approximately 205,000 square feet (19,000 m2) of office space, with an adjacent public plaza of approximately 5,000 square feet (460 m2). Three UN Plaza is leased exclusively to UNICEF for its world headquarters. It was built in postmodern design. The properties of One, Two, and Three UN Plaza are located on the East Side of Midtown Manhattan along the East River, in an area of Manhattan known as Turtle Bay.
