## Parking Under the Headquarters of the United Nations on First Avenue

The site has a three-story underground garage beneath the building, with 1,500 parking spaces for United Nations employees (Wikipedia). The garage entrance is on First Avenue between 45th and 46th streets (Prked). Drivers heading to 405 FDR Drive should treat this as an employee facility rather than a general visitor car park, since the published description identifies the spaces for staff.

For visitors, the practical approach is to use a nearby commercial facility rather than plan around the underground garage. The United Nations visitor page promotes in-person guided tours but does not provide public garage operating details (un.org). Parking.com lists a garage entrance at 400 East 54th Street between York and First avenues, giving drivers a clearly identified alternative in the surrounding area (parking.com).

## Commercial Garages Around 400 East 54th Street and 154 East 53rd Street

Parking.com identifies a United Nations destination facility with an entrance at 422-30 East 53rd Street and a second entrance at 400 East 54th Street between York and First avenues (parking.com). These are useful named entry points for drivers approaching from Midtown East, particularly when First Avenue traffic makes direct access to the site inconvenient.

The same operator lists 154 East 53rd Street as a parking location a nine-minute walk from the destination (parking.com). An additional deal near United Nations Plaza is advertised at $14.99 a day, with a five-minute walk to the headquarters area (On Air Parking). The employee garage beneath the building offers 1,500 spaces, but its stated use is for United Nations employees rather than general visitor parking (Wikipedia).

## Midtown East Traffic Around the United Nations Campus

Parking pressure is strongest when visitors are arriving for guided tours, because the United Nations visitor service offers in-person tours at the headquarters (un.org).

Access to the underground employee garage is from First Avenue between 45th and 46th streets (Prked). Commercial parking entrances are also published at 422-30 East 53rd Street and 400 East 54th Street between York and First avenues (parking.com). Use those named entrances rather than stopping on the approach to the building, and follow the posted curb and traffic controls on each block.

## Parksy Garage and Valet Spaces Near 405 FDR Drive

Parksy lists three garage spaces 0.2 miles from the site: a secure 24/7 garage at $25 a day, a secure garage at 430 East 49th Street in Midtown East at $29 a day, and a secure 24/7 garage at $16.05 an hour. These options suit drivers who want covered parking within a short distance of the headquarters.

Three further spaces are 0.3 miles away. The daily-priced spaces are better suited to longer visits, while the hourly options allow shorter stays without paying for a full day.

## Grand Central Access for Walking to the Headquarters

Grand Central is the nearest station, at 0.5 miles from the site and an 11-minute walk. This gives drivers a useful park-and-walk alternative when Midtown East garages are easier to reach than the riverfront approach to 405 FDR Drive.

The headquarters is in Manhattan near Koreatown, while Grand Central provides the named rail connection for the final walk. The 11-minute station walk is short enough for visitors attending a tour or appointment, and using the station removes the need to search for curb space close to the building.
