Caption Description
A view of the memorial stairway and flag-staff which was presented to the United Nations by Governor Nelson Rockefeller, on behalf of the people of New York on 25 October 1965. The 15 foot by 44 foot stairway is constructed of a single concrete arch paved with granite and flanked with Portland stone balustrades – the same type of stone used in the General Assembly Building just south of the memorial site. The 90 foot-long stainless steel flag-staff, is set in a granite base, which bears the inscription: “Dag Hammarskjöld, Staircase and flagpole, Gift of the State of New York, Fulfilling a wish of Dag Hammarskjöld, 1965, Nelson A. Rockefeller, Governor.” In the foreground is a statue, “Let Us Beat Our Swords into Plowshares”, a gift of the Soviet Union to the United Nations in 1959. The statue was executed by Soviet sculptor Evgeniy Vuchetich.
