Название: NYC: Police Plaza, Five in One and US Courthouse The NYPD is headquartered at One Police Plaza (1PP), located on Park Row across the street from City Hall and through the Municipal Building’s archway. Prominently centered in the plaza is Bernard Rosenthal’s Five in One (1974), standing at 30 feet high and made of 75 tons of Cor-ten steel. It is now painted bright red, according to Rosenthal’s original design (although lack of funds left the statue unpainted for years after it was completed). Rosenthal calls the sculpture abstract, but many people choose to see the five boroughs intertwined symbolically. The U.S. Courthouse was built as the Federal courthouse in New York City. Design work was started in 1933 and, after Cass Gilbert's (Woolworth Building) death the next year, supervised by his son until its completion in 1936. The six-storey base of the building is reminiscent of a Classical temple with its pilastered facades and colonnaded entrance, and rising from this is the sturdy 32-storey tower, topped by a pyramidal roof clad in gilded terra-cotta and a lantern.
