Фонтан
The fountain in the plaza in front of the Secretariat Building was paid for by the donations of School Children throughout the United States in a campaign sponsored by the American Association for the United Nations. Children in all 48 States as well as the District of Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands contributed their small savings (a total of $50,000.00) to help decorate the home for peace. The fountain is set in a circular pool, approximately 100 feet in diameter. The bottom of the pool is covered with a wave of patterns of symmetrical black and white bands of pebbles, each band separated by a 4 inch-high curb. At night the fountain is illuminated by specially designed lights placed beneath the sprays. The plaque embedded in sidewalk, on north side closest to gate.
