**FILE**The United Nations building is seen in this file photo from Sept. 12, 2002. The General Assembly finally gave a green light to start a $1.9 billion renovation of the U.N.'s landmark headquarters in New York after years of delays, a move welcomed Saturday Dec. 23, 2006, by outgoing Secretary-General Kofi Annan. The 39-story glass-and-steel building has not seen a major overhaul in its 54-year existence and now violates safety and fire codes. (AP Photo/David Karp-File)
