Headline
Dedication of New York State Memorial to Dag Hammarskjöld
Caption Description
A memorial stairway and flag-staff in honour of the late United Nations Secretary-General, Dag Hammarskjöld, was presented to the United Nations by Government Nelson A. Rockefeller, on behalf of the people of New York, at a brief ceremony. The ceremony was held on the North Terrace of the United Nations Headquarters, and formed part of the United Nations Week Celebrations. 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, located at the head of the stairway, 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.
