Renovation Plan Proposed for UN Building

[ChristineMarie]

Ban said emptying the Secretariat building would mean almost 2,600 staff members would have to be moved elsewhere, instead of only 1,100. The U.N. has already leased some office space, but will need to find space for 1,500 additional staffers and is already looking in midtown and lower Manhattan, he said.

I hear there's a really nice complex fit for a king in downtown BABYLON. They might like to try there.

I think it's interesting who they have hired to do the project...he does some really unusual designs. i would love to see what he has on the drawing board.

I've been wanting to see them move that sorry excuse for "peace" out of the US for a long time. That piece of hot property up there in Manhattan could be used for a good purpose for a change.

Yes, Iraq would do just fine.
