Democratic People's Republic of Korea
Permanent Representative of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea to
the United Nations
820 Second Avenue, 13th Floor, New York, NY 10017
Telephone: (212) 972-3105/3106/3128, Telefax: (212) 972-3154
In addition to the DPRK, 820 2nd Avenue, branded "Diplomat Centre," houses
about a dozen missions to the UN, among them those of Nicaragua (8th Floor),
Nepal (Suite 17B), Croatia (19th Floor), Peru (Suite 1600) and Nauru (Suite
400D), some apparently occupying full floors, like the DPRK, others in
half-floors and smaller suites. See:
http://www.embassyworld.com/embassy/un.htm
During Cryptome's visit on July 8, there was a police vehicle in front of
the building which left shortly. No evidence of worry about a nuclear threat
being plotted for or against on Floor 13.
Access to the Diplomat Centre lobby was unlimited with a courteous security
guard who did not recognize the name of the DPRK but offered a booklet on
UN missions to confirm the DPRK address. Across the avenue an angry hard-nut
Asian wielding a cellphone like a samarai sword looked as if he wanted to
lop the head off the goofus photographing and videotaping Floor 13.
Around the neighborhood, there was fiercely casual security at the UN and
high-profile missions: a NYPD cop protecting the UN was giggling on a cellphone,
slouched feet up in a hut. The new building for the US mission is under
construction, foundation and cellar nearing completion.
Eyeing the foundation work and cellar revealed the
secret location and design for the situation room to keep high-profit armageddon
at the top of the UN menu for down-market peace forever.

Note the unusual number of clunky outriggers are for supporting scaffolding
for repair and window washing
as well as the even more unusual caged ladders connecting roofs. It may be
that for security the missions do
not allow access for building maintenance and window cleaning. Problem with
that is that scaffolding and
ladders are favorite means for spies to burgle and plant bugs in targets.
Another possibilty is that these apparently added-on devices provide means
for emergency exit, the customary
code requirements no longer sufficient to assure skittish tenants they will
not be hit by their own insurgents or
those of their fellow tenants.

| The New US Mission to the UN Under Construction, Vacant Guard Hut
at Lower Right
The stepped structure adjoining the glazed facace is an oddity. It once adjoined
the now demolished US mission along
with the box-like low structure at right. It's not clear what they are. Could
be the center for UN surveillance.
