United Nations Proposes $6.25 Million School in Yorkville
Secretary General U Thant seeks support from member nations as the UN proposes a six story, air conditioned school at 89th Street and York Avenue to replace the current substandard facility. The project aims to serve 550 students from 65 nationalities plus about 200 local American children, with languages including English French Arabic Chinese Hindi and Spanish. Architectural plans by Harrison Abramovitz anticipate occupancy by August 1966 with half funding from external sources.
