Deputy Mayor Dan Doctoroff has been shopping a 35-story tower on Robert Moses Playground just south of the Secretariat "that would consolidate United Nations offices now housed in widely scattered city-owned buildings," The Times reported. The neighborhood "would be compensated for the park's loss by a planned esplanade and bike path along the East River," a city spokeswoman said.
