History

[edit]

On August 14, 1919, the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland in New York City was inaugurated.[3] It was the first mission of Poland to be established in the United States.[3]

In July 1945, Consul General Sylwin Strakacz repudiated the new communist Polish Provisional Government of National Unity, and resigned his post.[3]

In December 1972 Poland purchased the Joseph Raphael De Lamar House at 233 Madison Avenue in Manhattan in New York City, New York, and reestablished the consulate at this location.[3]
