North Gate guard booth | The Tribunal
This guard booth was located at the back entrance to the ICTY, called the North Gate because it was located at the northern point of the building (more or less). Most staff members would enter here because this is where the large bicycle parking lot was located (just behind the camera in this photo). The vast majority of the employees cycled to work. It's one of the great benefits of The Hague.
The booth had a heater which was very useful in the colder half of the year which is dominated in The Netherlands by chilly and rainy weather. Even if it won't often go into the negative centigrades it will be cold to stand still in a guard booth.
The camera was connected to the Security Control Centre which oversaw the premises' security system. The orange barrel was meant to be used in the event of suspected bomb threats.
From my project The Tribunal, which I made during my last years at the ICTY to show the great diversity of this amazing institution. The full project can be accessed on my site below.
