"The United Nations, commencing operation in 1946 after the end of World War II, was first headquartered at the site of the 1939-40 N. Y. World’s Fair. The large, futuristic, Fair station had been demolished after the Fair closed in 1940 and was replaced by this much smaller and less elaborate station facility on the site of the previous station."
