Abstract :
The temporary quarters of the United Nations organization at Lake Success, N. Y., were used for the first time when the Security Council met on August 28, 1946. Early in July the Sperry Gyroscope Company had vacated a 650 by 650 foot portion of their wartime plant as well as their administration building at Lake Success on Long Island. Extensive alterations had been effected in the next 46 days. The entire electrical installation was planned, engineered, and supervised by Voorhees, Walker, Foley, and Smith, architects and engineers of New York, N. Y.
