LEGO Model UN Headquarters

Building peace and security one LEGO brick at a time

Arts, Culture & Media

It’s a good day for the UN, with its chemical weapons inspectors getting honored with a Nobel Peace Prize. The UN has been recognized in other ways over the years. A LEGO model of UN Headquarters was recently unveiled. Secretary General Ban Ki Moon even snapped in the final piece on a large scale version. We got the small kit here in the office — all 597 pieces. And we set out to build it.
