Unified Intelligence Task Force maintained a base in Manhattan skyscraper. It served as the main base for the organisation circa 2009.

Overview

History

UNIT originally had a New York Liaison Office. In 2005 it underwent major expansion, allowing UNIT quicker and easier access to the United Nations General Assembly. The officer overseeing the expansion was Major Highway. (http://www.unit.org.uk/press/newyork.shtml)

In 2009 the base was a major UNIT hub. Experiments like Project Indigo were carried out there. At the time the base was overseen by Lieutenant-General Sanchez.

Following Earth's removal from normal space, it was a prime target for the Daleks during the War in the Medusa Cascade. Many of the base's personnel were exterminated in this attack, including Sanchez himself. (TV: The Stolen Earth)

It is unknown if UNIT re-housed or re-staffed the base following the destruction of the Daleks.

Technology and facilities

The facility had a war room and an international co-ordination centre housed in the war room. It also had ample scientific facilities to house Project Indigo and other scientific facilities and support staff for projects such as the Osterhagen Program. (TV: The Stolen Earth)
