The park is named after Ralph Johnson Bunche, who was an American political scientist, academic, and diplomat who received the 1950 Nobel Peace Prize .
Park is named for the 1st African-American to receive Nobel Peace Prize (1950). Check out the Isaiah Wall/Scharansky Steps. In front of steps is a 50' stainless-steel obelisk known as Peace Form One.
This is a tiny park located across the UN. Protests take place here frequently.
Relax near the tall walls of greenery and statues in Ralph Bunche Park.

They shall beat their swords into plowshares. And their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up their sword against nation. Neither shall they learn war any more.
